Description

Berkeley Noir brings together an outstanding list of authors to explore the darker side of this iconic California city. From its streets to its alleys, Berkeley has long been a haven for outcasts and misfits, a place where the lines between good and evil are constantly blurred. With new stories by Barry Gifford, Jim Nisbet, Lexi Pandell, Lucy Jane Bledsoe, Mara Faye Lethem, Thomas Burchfield, Shanthi Sekaran, Nick Mamatas, Kimn Neilson, Jason S. Ridler, Susan Dunlap, J.M. Curet, Summer Brenner, Michael David Lukas, Aya de León, and Owen Hill, this anthology delves into the city's rich literary history, one that swerves through varying shades of noir. From grifters to cops, Berkeley Noir asks if not here, where? This collection is a testament to the city's enduring spirit, one that continues to inspire writers to explore its darker corners.
