Requirements: ePUB reader, 4.1 MB
Overview: "... The New Black Mask Quarterly is an expression of homage to the original Black Mask pulp magazine which flourished in the twenties and thirties and provided an incubator for the hard-boiled school of writing. Whether—as literary historians have claimed—those writers really established the authentic voice of American prose, it is indisputable that American fiction would be very different without the progeny of Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler. This extended family includes Ross Macdonald, John D. MacDonald, Mickey Spillane, Horace McCoy, James M. Cain, Robert B. Parker, and Elmore Leonard.
Black Mask died a lingering death in 1951. The crumbling copies are now collector’s items and have the look of literary artifacts. Yet the tradition remains vital. Under its most influential editor, Joseph T. Shaw (1926-1936), Black Mask achieved a wide reputation for strong fiction; in that respect we will endeavor to emulate our namesake..."
