Beschreibung:
ROBERT TALLANT (1909-1957) was one of Louisiana's best-known authors and a participant in the WPA Writers' Project during the 1930s and 1940s. During the last years of his life, he was a lecturer in English at Newcomb College.
Robert Tallant says that "New Orleans need never apologize for its murder history." From that elegant brothel on Basin Street, where fat Kate Townsend's body was found on her lace-hung bed, with a basket of flowers suspended from the tester, to the shuttered filthy room where the hypnotist Dr. Deschamps lay with a dead child beside him, the murder history of New Orleans has been a dramatic one.
