Description: "Woolrich's novels and short stories are examined, as are films adapted from these works. This work shows how Woolrich's techniques and themes influenced the noir genre. Twenty-two stories and 29 films compose the bulk of the study, though other films noirs are also considered because of their relevance to Woolrich's plots, themes, and characters"--Provided by publisher.
