About This Item
Includes the first three Bernie Gunther novels that Philip Kerr wrote.
MARCH VIOLETS / THE PALE CRIMINAL / A GERMAN REQUEM.
Cover price for this book at $24.00.
If you want to get into an excellent historical fiction series (especially one dealing with the WWII era in Germany) ...this is it. All Philip Kerr's books are terrific. This series is one of the very best I have ever read. These are just 3 of 14 Gunther novels, but after you've read a couple, you'll want to do them all.
Reviews
On Dec 21 2007, Booksshhe said:
given that i have a frightening love for the NOIR genre....this trio takes the, uh, cake...reminiscent of James Ellroy--with a European(here's where i struggle for words) reticence...c'mon the books are set in pre- and post-war Berlin....the novels of the late 30s were more reticent....not to say these are panty-waist books...they're violent for sure but they have....Class...Style....not unlike Ellroy but....there's that something more-or less-lurking beyond the page....Question: Why has no one seen fit to bring these books to the screen? they would be perfect. and i hate to see good books turned into mediocre films...
