If there was a polar keep in my library, it would certainly be the Grand Nowhere. Several reasons for this, first the context, Los Angeles 50 years, the wave of liberation of postwar mores that collides with conservatism and macchartisme. Then the plot that challenges all kind of usual mechanisms. Finally James Elroy goes up a frame in a unique style where nothing is neither completely white or completely black. No hesitation, you like or want to explore the dark thriller, The Big Nowhere is the reference!
