''Hollywood Nocturnes'' is a 1994 collection of short stories by James Ellroy. Like many of Ellroy's novels, the majority of the stories are set in 1940s and 1950s. The collection was inspired by Ellroy's having seen the film Daddy-O and finding cosmic significance in the image of Dick Contino, whom Ellroy tracked down to interview for the book. The first segment of the book, "Dick Contino's Blues," is a novella about Contino tracking down a serial killer while trying to repair his public image after being labeled a draft-dodger. Several other stories resurrect deceased Ellroy protagonists, recalling major events in their lives as they near death. ==Contents== *"Out of the Past" *"Dick Contino's Blues" *"High Darktown" *"Dial Axminster 6-400" *"Since I Don't Have You" *"Gravy Train" *"Torch Number" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hollywood Nocturnes」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
