The Dead All Have The Same SkinBy Boris Vian. Introduction by Marc Lapprand. Translated by Paul Knobloch.Vian’s second noir novel under the Vernon Sullivan pseudonym is a brutal tale of racism in postwar New York City, as protagonist Daniel Parker is blackmailed by a long lost brother. Also included is the short story “Dogs, Desire and Death,” and Vian’s account of the controversies surrounding his previous novel
I Spit on your Graves.
PRAISE AND REVIEWSLiterary HubAppropriation and racial confusion themselves become motifs; the book reads like the nightmare of a person having an extreme identity crisis.
