John Franklin Bardin

    30 de noviembre de 1916 – 9 de julio de 1981

    John Franklin Bardin fue un autor estadounidense cuyas obras, en particular sus novelas policíacas, han alcanzado un estatus de culto. Su escritura se caracteriza por una atmósfera oscura y una profundidad psicológica. Bardin a menudo exploraba las complejas motivaciones de sus personajes y sus encuentros con los aspectos más oscuros de la naturaleza humana. Sus obras posteriores fueron descubiertas por lectores británicos, lo que generó un renovado interés en la década de 1970.

    The Deadly Percheron
    • Who stole George Matthews' life? 'Doctor, I think I'm losing my mind...'. When a wealthy young man turns up at respected psychiatrist Dr George Matthews' office uttering these words, it changes his safe existence forever. Suddenly Matthews finds himself dragged into a strange, surreal world where nothing is certain. And when an actress is found murdered, a horse tied up outside her apartment, Matthews loses his memory - and must find it in a nightmarish urban jungle of mistaken identities, secrets and insanity.

      The Deadly Percheron
    • Between 1946 and 1948 John Franklin Bardin produced three quite extraordinary novels, all distinguished by a hallucinatory intensity of feeling and an absorption in morbid psychology remarkable for the period. The Deadly Percheron, The Last of Philip Banter and Devil Take the Blue-Tail Fly are unlike anything else in modern crime literature.For the first time all three have been gathered together in a single volume, and at long last reintroduce the work of a great and original writer.
