FOREVER AFTER by Jim Thompson
1 star but Amazon readers luv it
Its a really lame effort to duplicate THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE. That is, a married girl and her dishwasher lover conspire to murder her husband and live happily ever after. Its all the same just different except she spends eternity with the husband after they die.
Thompson is reputed to be the grand master of noir, but I dislike most of his books. Theyre weird in a bad way, like TOBACCO ROAD by Erskine Caldwell. If poor white trash is your thing LET US NOW PRAISE FAMOUS MEN by James Agee is what you want. He captured poor rural whites and blacks in amber, forever.
This effort is a waste of time.
