Getting Carter: Ted Lewis and the Birth of British Noir

By
No Customer Reviews
The cinema classic was based on a book called Jack's Return Home, and many commentators agree contemporary British crime writing began with that novel. The influence of both book and film is strong to this day, reflected in the work of David Peace, Jake Arnott, Russell Lewis and the likes. But what of the man who wrote this seminal foundation work? Getting Carter is a meticulously researched and riveting account of the career of a doomed genius.
