Recommended Article: About James Ellroy
“Fortunately for literature, that aversion to everything that distorts the brain and transforms behavior has not prevented the sober Ellroy from creating devastating prose and permanently related to vertigo, extracting terrifying realism from arguments, feelings and violence that border on delirium , to brilliantly portray the dark face of his country, to find a disturbing lyricism in abominable behaviors and professions, to be the inimitable bulwark of political and vital incorrectness, to build diabolical plots and characters that are beyond good and evil with the capacity of hypnosis .”
