Noir Nation 6: International Journal of Crime Fiction

Soon after its founding in 2011, Noir Nation: International Crime Fiction became the globally recognized home of international crime fiction. Noir Nation's content is often dark, sometimes creepy, and sometimes humorous but always at the service of the literary imagination as it explores the darker regions of human experience, where the only crime is weak writing.


Nation No. 6 continues the crime noir tradition by circling back to its jazz roots. This issue, with 14 writers, including widely published powerhouse Gary Phillips, and Tatiana Eva-Marie, who is publishing her first story, addresses jazz and crime, jazz and temptation and the startling impulses that give them life and genius. As famed tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins said, "Music represents nature. Nature represents life. Jazz represents nature. Jazz is life." So too is Noir a kind of view of life-raw and stripped of pretense, with dark emotions fueling even darker obsessions. There are no words that better describe Noir Nation.
