Since then he’s written hundreds of stories, wrote for radio in New York and is now working in Hollywood. Outstanding novels include Dark Passage, Nightfall and Behold This Woman. Philosophy? . . . Goodis: “. . . work hard . . . but don’t ever worry about a thing.”


This Edition includes the illustrations from both stories and mini-bio, plus a gallery of 8 Pulp Magazine covers that feature David Goodis stories.

About the Author

About The Author

David Goodis is one of the most enigmatic and acclaimed authors to come out of the world of pulp crime fiction. Born in Philadelphia, he brought a jazzy, expressionist style and an almost hallucinatory intensity to his spare, passionate, uncompromising novels of mean streets and doomed people. Goodis first rose to national attention with the book Dark Passage, which was adapted as the classic film noir starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall in 1947.
