Black Wings Has My Angel is the dreamlike tale of a man after a jailbreak who meets up with the woman of his dreams—and his nightmares. A phenomenal work of the period and a legend among noir buffs, Chaze’s pulp classic is back in print for the first time in more than half a century.
Elliott Chaze (1915–1990) was an old-school newspaper man who began his journalism career with the New Orleans bureau of the Associated Press shortly before Pearl Harbor, worked for a time for AP’s Denver office after paratrooper service in WWII, and then migrated south to Mississippi where he spent twenty years as a reporter and award-winning columnist. He is the author of several novels.
Malcolm Hillgartner is a professional actor, playwright, and songwriter. In 2007, he began recording audiobooks and has since recorded more than 175 titles. He has won multiple Earphones Awards and was named a Best Voice of 2013 by AudioFile magazine.
Reviews
“An astonishingly well-written literary novel that just happened to be about (or roundabout) a crime.”
“The protagonist, ex-convict Tim Sunblade, is a quintessential antihero, an unrepentant bastard who executes a daring armed-car robbery in Colorado with the help of a call girl, Virginia, whom he picked up in a backwoods Mississippi motel. The details of the crime and its aftermath are vividly described, and the love-hate relationship between Sunblade and the woman and the demons in both that lead to their downfall are masterpieces of dark-side character development.”
