Dashiell Hammett: Red Harvest and Other Stories. Printed book.
The usual price $29.95Dashiell Hammett is the creator of the unique "hardboiled detective" genre, which soon became a classic in the canon of American literature.
The mining town in the American West is not nicknamed Poisonville for nothing. Here, political corruption flourishes; here, gangsters have made themselves cozy nests; and here, Hammett's favorite hero, the "nameless" private investigator, derives truly Machiavellian pleasure by cunningly pitting rival criminal gangs against each other to ensure their mutual destruction.
In addition to the title novel, the collection includes six works about the Continental Op and seven standalone stories previously unpublished in Russian.
