About this item

New York’s punchiest borough asserts its criminal legacy with all new stories from a magnificent set of today’s best writers. “Brooklyn Noir’s contributors are aware of their surroundings, literal and literary . . . Be cool: This pulp’s got enough juice to keep the margaritas flowing.” ―Village Voice “For fans of noir, for fans of Brooklyn, for fans of just plain old great writing―this is the book for you, or, rather, I should say, you’se.” ―Jonathan Ames, author of What’s Not to Love? and The Extra Man The first installment in Akashic’s groundbreaking series of original noir anthologies, launched in 2004. Each story is set in a distinct neighborhood or location within the city of the book. Brand-new stories by: Pete Hamill, Nelson George, Sidney Offit, Arthur Nersesian, Pearl Abraham, Neal Pollack, Ken Bruen, Ellen Miller, Maggie Estep, Kenji Jasper, Adam Mansbach, C.J. Sullivan, Chris Niles, Norman Kelley, Nicole Blackman, Tim McLoughlin, Thomas Morrissey, Lou Manfredo, Luciano Guerriero, and Robert Knightley. New York’s punchiest borough asserts its criminal legacy with all new stories from a magnificent set of today’s best writers. Brooklyn Noir moves from Coney Island to Bedford-Stuyvesant to Bay Ridge to Red Hook to Bushwick to Sheepshead Bay to Park Slope and far deeper, into the heart of Brooklyn’s historical and criminal largesse, with all of its dark splendor. Each contributor presents a brand new story set in a distinct neighborhood. Brooklyn Noir mixes masters of genre with the best of New York’s literary fiction community―and, of course, leaving room for new blood. These brilliant and chilling stories see crime striking in communities of Russians, Jamaicans, Puerto Ricans, Italians, Irish, and many other ethnicities―in the most diverse urban location on the planet.
