TamTam Books is proud (as usual) to announce the publication of Vernon Sullivan's (or better known as Boris Vian) masterpiece of noir-gone berserk '" The Dead All Have The Same Skin (Les Morts ont tous la Meme Peau).
Written one year after the controversial (putting it mildly), I Spit onYour Graves, you think Vian would have known better. But no, he decided to do another violent shocker that is ripped out of today's headlines. This surreal masterpiece of dark writing is about Daniel Parker, a bouncer in a hell-hole somewhere in New York City (Vian, a French man had never been to the States) who isblackmailed by his long lost brother who is black and threatens him totell the truth about his brother's racial blood. Parker is not going totake that. His life, by that admission, becomes a tipsy topsey, one-way ticket to hell.
If that is not enough it also includes a short story by Vian "Dogs,Desire, and Death," which is an erotic tale of a bad girl, a helplessdriver, and the need for destruction and sexual release.
And no, not even that is not enough; we have a small essay or more like a rant by Vian regarding the history of his first controversial shocker I Spit on Your Graves. And not only that, but also a thoughtful and informative introduction by Marc Lapprand.
Genre: Mystery
