Noir

[close] This group is dedicated to an appreciation of important works of literature, both classic and contemporary... that happen to fall into the category of Dark Fiction. We tend to avoid the big, banal blockbusters (and the more lurid fare) in favor of beautifully written explorations of the unknown, many of them obscure, all of them extraordinary. [Note from the Moderator: A couple of years ago, we changed our group name from "Literary Horror" in order to expand our sphere of interests (and dislodge a few embedded trolls). Our enthusiasms embrace Gothic, Weird Fiction, and Noir, as well as much that might be classified as Horror, but we also appreciate literary fiction that cannot be easily fitted into a marketing niche. In fact, this latter group of titles has evolved into our primary focus. Most serious fiction deals (to some extent) with darker themes, and many works of distinction have employed supernatural, surreal or existentialist elements. These books have power. They endure, because they appeal to serious readers and provide thoughtful entertainment. Come. Explore them with us.]

[close] Siamo un gruppo di persone che ama la letteratura. I nostri autori sono Persone, che si sono messe in gioco raccontando e raccontandosi. I testi che pubblichiamo sono storie emozionanti e coinvolgenti, che siano semplici o complesse, che facciano sognare o che facciano paura è lo stesso. In questo gruppo i nostri Autori posso incontrare i nostri lettori, discutere con loro sulle loro storie e di quello che vorrebbero da loro. Ai membri di questo gruppo sono inoltre riservate iniziative da parte della Casa Editrice che verranno volta per volta comunicate.

[close] This group was created by a group of indie authors. We write books, good books, sometimes great books, and we read each other's books. This group is a way for us to introduce new titles, discuss popular indie books, and is open to both indie authors and readers who are looking to "go indie". We invite other indie authors, and while we focus on mystery, crime and noir, really we want to talk about good books with a little grit to them.
