Critique Of Books Devil Take the Blue-tail Fly

En los márgenes más ignotos y extravagantes del género del terror, pululan autores cuyo inmerecido anonimato y falta de difusión hacen de su descubrimiento todo un goce solitario. De calidad sofisticada e innovadora para su época, el estadounidense John Franklin Bardin es sin duda uno de ellos. Dejando una obra singular que al día de hoy aún sigue cautivando o repeliendo a sus iniciados debido a un estilo refinado que busca de la más difícil y realista consistencia de una pesadilla moderna.

Quando comprei este livro fi-lo quase exclusivamente por causa do nome (só dei uma vista de olhos na sinopse). Vamos ver como me saí!!!!!!!!!!!!!Gostei bastante embora seja um livro triste. Faz-nos pensar a importancia da nossa mente, o que ela nos pode levar a fazer, pensar ou sentir....

It's a combination of noir and psychological horror where the reader is never on solid ground, due to the deteriorating mental condition of the protagonist, a semi-famous, mentally disturbed classical harpsichordist newly free of an insane asylum, whose buried and forgotten past

John Franklin Bardin was born in Cincinnati, Ohio on November 30, 1916. During his teens, he lost nearly all his immediate family to various ailments. As he approached thirty, he moved to New York City where during his adulthood he was an executive of an advertising agency, published ten novels and taught creative writing as well as advertising at the NEW SCHOOL FOR SOCIAL RESEARCH.In 1946, Bardin

Ellen, a gifted concert harpsichord player, has suffered a mental breakdown following her seduction as a student by a predatory folk-singer. At the start of the novel she has just left the institution in which she spent 3 years. This is very much in the mould of Patricia Highsmith, who explores themes of mental health and schizophrenia quite frequently. In fact Bardin decides to pursue the mental health aspect rather than the crime angle, and, as fascinating as it is, that wont be for everyone,
