Dark Passage: A Library of America eBook Classic
For the first time, the best work of a distinctive master of American noir is available in authoritative e-book editions from The Library of America.

The story of a man railroaded for his wife’s murder and forced to assume a different identity after escaping from prison becomes in Goodis’s hands a lyrical evocation of urban fear and loneliness. Other David Goodis novels available as Library of America E-Book Classics include: Nightfall, The Burglar, The Moon in the Gutter, and Street of No Return.
