David Goodis: Nightfall, Gebunden

Klappentext

A tense noir thriller of flight, suspicion, and psychological strain, following a man caught in a web of crime he cannot escape. David Goodis's Nightfall traces the descent of an ordinary man whose life is quietly overtaken by fear and uncertainty after a chance encounter draws him into a dangerous situation. As he attempts to outrun both the truth and those pursuing him, the boundaries between innocence and guilt begin to blur, and the past refuses to remain buried. Written in Goodis's characteristic spare and atmospheric style, the novel builds steadily toward a sense of inevitability, where every decision tightens the trap. Nightfall stands as a representative work of mid-twentieth-century noir fiction, defined by its focus on psychological tension, moral ambiguity, and the fragile nature of identity under pressure.
