Ebook About
“In an Ivy League town, Bloom turns Yale’s motto—Lux et Veritas—on its head, finding darkness and deceit in every corner of New Haven.” —Kirkus Reviews   The image of a charming college town serves New Haven well, but its natives know that the city has been built on a rich—and violent—history that still seeps out from between the cracks in the sidewalks and the halls of learning.   Now, New York Times–bestselling author—and Connecticut resident—Amy Bloom masterfully curates a star-studded cast of contributors, featuring Michael Cunningham, Stephen L. Carter, and Roxana Robinson, to portray New Haven’s underbelly. Highlights of the anthology include Lisa D. Gray’s “The Queen of Secrets,” which won the Robert L. Fish Memorial Award and John Crowley’s “Spring Break,” winner of the Edgar Award for Best Short Story. Tales by Alice Mattison, Chris Knopf, Jonathan Stone, Sarah Pemberton Strong, Karen E. Olson, Jessica Speart, Chandra Prasad, David Rich, Hirsh Sawhney, and Bloom herself round out this impressive collection.   “Town-gown tensions highlight several of the 15 stories in this stellar Akashic noir anthology set in the Elm City . . . This [volume] is particularly strong on established authors, many of whom have impressive credentials outside the genre.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review   “The anthology brings together writers who take varied approaches to the idea of noir in the Elm City. Some stories are historical, some are contemporary. All the classic New Haven landmarks are there, including plenty of Yale . . . The full sweep of New Haven’s character is on display in the anthology.” —Connecticut Magazine

Book New Haven Noir (Akashic Noir) Review :



While ordinarily not a fan of anthologies and short stories (they end too abruptly just as I'm rolling along, always leaving me wanting more. But then again, when done right it does take a particularly skilled writer to tell a tale in so few words, and maybe leaving you wondering about those characters is the point!), I've been on a 'New Haven kick' of late and really glad I decided to give this one a try. Not exactly upbeat- it is noir, after all- and while I wouldn't say all the entries fall squarely into the genre, there's great writing here by authors from whom you'll want to look for more. One story in particular, by David Rich, really fills the bill with the classic elements of a bartender and a broad but with the modernizing twist of corruptmilitary contractors and mercenaries standing in for the gangsters of old. (As a movie and television writer he's particularly adept at packing a bigstory into a small space, with some twists you wouldn't think there'd time for, but old habits die hard and I'd still love to see this one fleshed out into a novel!) A few contributions by pretentious literary/academic types that translate into pretentious literary/academic characters (Yale is a major player here), but a description of lovely old 1920's-era East Rock houses and foggy nights outside Union Station off-set them! You don't have to love, or even know, New Haven to enjoy this collection but for those who do, the references and descriptions of the city will really put you right there. An author's descriptive abilities are so important in submerging you in the story, but when those places really exist, and you so easily recognize them, all the better! When done right, the short story is the perfect format for noir. This one is definitely worth a look. In the words of author and editor Amy Bloom, 'things happen in New Haven, don't think they don't'!
I have really liked some of the noir series books, and as a Yalie I saw great potential for one set in the gritty streets of New Haven, but this one fails. To be fair, I got about three or four stories in and gave up, but the writing I forced myself through seemed callow and very derivative - sort of what someone who grew up in the privilege soaked environs of a Laura Ashley themed home in Greenwich might think the noirish mean streets would be like, based on a tv show or two and the comment sections of a favorite Facebook feed. I know this series was done a while back, but it would have been a lot better if they had exercised some quality control so buying one wasn't such a total crapshoot.
