The Postman Always Rings Twice

`Nobody has ever quite pulled it off the way Cain does, not Hemingway, and not even Raymond Chandler` Tom Wolfe The torrid story of Frank Chambers, the amoral drifter, Cora, the sullen and brooding wife, and Nick Papadakis, the amiable but inconvenient husband, has become a classic of its kind, and established Cain as a major novelist with a spare and vital prose style and a bleak vision of America.
