Noir: Where the nature of evil unravels

“For me, stories are a rehearsal. I’m running from something. Hell, make no mistake, we’re all running from something—death. The evil in our stories works like a straw man for death. How do we face evil in stories? We approach it head on. With a gun. With a sword. With a fistful of dirt. With the truth. We face evil down like we’re heroes. And this, I want to argue, is how we hope to face death.“
