Summary: Loved it! The book that made me a Jim Thompson fan!
Comment: I'd heard high-praise for Mr. Thompson's books--from Stephen King to James Ellroy--but it wasn't until I read A Hell of a Woman that I became a believer. It's not only dark, like you'd expect, but alive! The book gets inside your head and won't leave, even after you've finished the last page. Images you will never shake! Read it!
Rating: 5
Summary: One of the best noir crime novels I have ever read.
Comment: The story's narrator Dolly Dillon is so exquisitely creepy. A Hell of a Woman is the type of book that leaves you feeling a bit disturbed when you finish reading. A fabulous journey into the dark side of humanity. I can't wait to read another Jim Thompson novel.
Rating: 4
Summary: so unlucky with love...
Comment: 'A Hell of a Woman" clearly falls right into Jim Thompson's turf: where a somewhat psychotic loser falls in love with Ms Wrong, then getting himself in deep trouble, and finally realizes that once again he hasn't moved forward in life at all (..but rather is worse off than when he started). Like is famous/notorious "The Killer Inside Me", Jim Thompson makes clever us of first-person narration including little slivers of where our 'loser' tells us his inner thoughts. Very chilling.
Bottom line: good story, well-written, fine characterizations. No complaints.
