The Goodbye Kiss by Massimo Carlotto
The best living Italian crime writer.-Il ManifestoAn unscrupulous womanizer, as devoid of morals now as he once was full of idealistic fervor, returns to Italy, where he is wanted for a series of crimes. To earn himself the guise of respectability, he is willing to go as far as murder.
Massimo Carlotto was born in Padua, Italy. In addition to the many titles in his extremely popular Alligator series, he is also the author of The Fugitive, Death's Dark Abyss, Poisonville, Bandit Love, and the forthcoming At the End of a Dull Day. One of Italy's most popular authors and a major exponent of the Mediterranean Noir novel, Carlotto has been compared with many of the most important American hardboiled crime writers. His novels have been translated into many languages, enjoying enormous success outside of Italy, and several have been made into highly acclaimed films. Mediterranean Noir packs plenty of plot into a slim volume, with space set aside for elaborate northeast Italian meals, musings on women, and plenty of Calvados drinking. - The Daily Beast on The Master of Knots Carlotto's taut, broody Mediterranean noir is filled with blind corners and savage set pieces. - The New Yorker on At the End of a Dull Day Beneath the conventions of Continental noir is a remarkable study of corruption and redemption in a world where revenge is best served ice-cold. Kirkus (starred review) on Death's Dark Abyss Marco Videtta is a well-known screenwriter and the author of several successful Italian television series. Poisonville is his first novel.
