The Postman Always Rings Twice, by James M. Cain
Categorized in: 52 Books/52 Weeks
A classic noir novel of lust and murder. Amusing how the crime committed by the main characters – and how it gets adjudicated – is so dependent on something as unsexy as insurance (a la Cain’s masterpiece Double Indemnity). The novel’s a good reminder of the dangers of getting what you want.
