Johnny Shaw Livres
Johnny Shaw crée des récits profondément ancrés dans l'atmosphère vibrante et souvent crue de la frontière de Calexico/Mexicali, un cadre qui façonne profondément son art de raconter des histoires. Son écriture plonge dans les complexités de la vie à cette frontière, explorant des thèmes d'identité, de survie et les lignes floues entre le bien et le mal avec une voix distinctive et sans concession. La fiction de Shaw se caractérise par son énergie brute et un mélange puissant de profondeur littéraire et d'excitation pulp. Son expérience en écriture de scénarios influence en outre sa capacité à construire des intrigues tendues et captivantes ainsi que des personnages mémorables qui résonnent auprès des lecteurs.

Jack Veeder is dying. Soon. And that impending event brings his son Jimmy back to the Imperial Valley of southern California just north of the Calexico/Mexicali border. Jimmy hopes he can spend what time his father has left laughing and reminiscing. But Jack's got one dying request. He needs Jimmy to find a Mexican prostitute named Yolanda. Enlisting the help of his boyhood friend Bobby Maves, the pair stumbles through the violent, the exploited, and the corrupted of Mexicali. It doesn't take long before they're in over their heads. And as Jimmy tries to survive the dangers of the Mexicali underworld, he unwittingly uncovers truths about his father he never imagined, forcing Jimmy to come to terms with the man he thought he knew, and to decide just what sort of man he wants to become. " Johnny Shaw] is excellent at creating a sense of place with a few deft strokes... he moves effortlessly between dark comedy and moments that pack a real emotional punch, and he's got a knack for off-kilter characters who are completely at home in their own personal corners of oddballdom." - Tana French, author of In the Woods, Faithful Place
