Book Description

On 11th January, 1947 in Los Angeles, a beautiful young woman walked into the night and met her horrific destiny. Five days later, her tortured body was found drained of blood and cut in half. The newspapers called her 'The Black Dahlia'. Two cops are caught up in the investigation and embark on a hellish journey that takes them to the core of the dead girl's twisted life.

From Publishers Weekly

Narrator Hoye firmly nails young world-weary cop Bucky Bleichert in this audio version of Ellroy's 1987 crime novel. The flawed boxer-turned-lawman becomes obsessed with L.A.'s notorious unsolved 1947 torture-murder case, as well as the secret life of his missing partner, Lee Blanchard. Hoye proves a fine match for Ellroy's hardboiled prose, shuttling easily between hard and soft tones, crystallizing Bleichert's mix of cynicism, confusion, hurt and rage. Set in booming postwar Los Angeles, this tale of ambition, deceit and obsession builds to symphonic proportions. Throughout, Hoye skillfully modulates his narration to distinctly render each character—corrupt cops, city officials, pimps, GIs, Mexican bar owners, prostitutes, society matrons and even the sound of a bullet piercing canvas. Hoye especially shines during heated police interrogations, able to shift his voice on a dime. The audio includes a new afterword from Ellroy, which might have delivered more punch had Ellroy read it himself. But in terms of this gritty, sprawling novel, Hoye was unquestionably the right man for the job.

From Library Journal

Using the basic facts concerning the 1940s' notorious and yet unsolved Black Dahlia case, Ellroy creates a kaleidoscope of human passion and dark obsession. A young woman's mutilated body is found in a Los Angeles vacant lot. The story is seen through the eyes of Bucky Bleichert, ex-prize fighter and something of a boy wonder on the police force. There is no relief or humor as Bleichert arrives at a grisly discovery. Ellroy's powerful rendering of the long-reaching effects of murder gives the case new meaning.

From AudioFile

Former dick Bucky Bleichert tells how he solved the title murder case, and why the solution of the crime was kept secret though it cost him his badge, girl, and best friend. While the Marlowe-esque Bucky is fictional, his account agrees with the known facts of this real 1947 torture-killing of an L.A. party girl. Corruption and depravity are dressed in gaudy dialogue and period grit. This edition includes a concluding essay drawing parallels between the Dahlia case and Ellroy's personal and life-changing encounter with murder. All this is served up by Stephen Hoye, who convincingly plays the detective with a world-weariness that fails to blunt his capacity for lust, shock, and revulsion. He modulates his pace shrewdly for suspense and drama, and manages to make the neo-noir clichés seem fresh and genuine. Y.R. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award

读后感

这个惨案倒是很早以前就听说过。发现有电影时兴喜异常，还好有缘先看了书，并不如想象中出彩。无非是个失意的小演员的悲惨人生。她抱着人生的梦想在好莱坞的山下一遍遍的晃，编出各式各样的故事来延续自己变成明星的梦。她好脾气的接着客，无比诚恳地骗钱，重复着曾经有过...  

她活着的时候我并不认识她。我通过别人得知她的存在，通过对她死因的调查而了解了她的生活。通过调查，通过找出来的一系列真相，我将她重构为一个无可救药的小女孩儿，一个妓女，至少是可能做过妓女——在这一点上我们有相同之处，我也曾经生活糜烂。----黑色大丽花 作者：[美...  

一直在看外国小说，似乎以此使自己离现实能多远就多远，而那点读原文不够，看翻译时不时挑出错来的英文水平私底下也磨折得我够呛。骨子里的贱和书商的不专业闹腾到一起，读本书也消停不了。 《黑色大丽花》的名字很久以前就听说了，在那部电影开拍之前，至于怎么听说的，感觉是...  

看完了，很大一部分感觉是反胃 后遗症是看到嘴巴咧到耳根的脸都会想起这本书 例如蝙蝠侠6 貌似看的时候正在去年7月 上海天气应该暴热 但是每次看两页都会觉得恶寒 日月无光 ...本来是因为电影宣传才看书的 结果看了书索性连电影也不看了 不知道为什么会让我觉得这么反感 翻译...
