  • -  Recorded on 2019-08-31.
  • -  James Ellroy was born in Los Angeles. His "L.A. Quartet" novels -- "The Black Dahlia," "The Big Nowhere," "L.A. Confidential" and "White Jazz" -- have won numerous awards and are international best-sellers. His novel "American Tabloid" was Time magazine's Novel of the Year for 1995; his memoir, "My Dark Places," was a Time Best Book and a New York Times Notable Book for 1997. His novel "The Cold Six Thousand" was a New York Times Notable Book in 2001. Ellroy's "Perfidia" is the first book in his Second "L.A. Quartet." The design of this series is unprecedented. Ellroy takes characters from the original L.A. Quartet and the Underworld U.S.A. Trilogy and places them in Los Angeles during World War II as significantly younger people. His new novel is "This Storm."
