The Hawk and the Dove

Autorentext

Kluge lives with his mother and brother in a tenement, in a nameless city, long ago. A misfit, a loner, Kluge lives in a fantasy world, until the day the dream ends, and reality reveals itself to be a nightmare. Discovering a terrible secret, Kluge explodes in a torrent of homicidal rage. Kluge lashes out at a world that mocks him, erupting in blood-spattered fury. But is it all just another of his dreams? This hardboiled novelette was written in a white heat of inspiration, based on a grisly true crime case from the Roaring Twenties. Kluge bristles like tough poetry. You'll never forget it.
