Un'impresa di folli che hanno scovato resoconti di diavoli e streghe e sortilegi infami. Di assassini e orrori sconcertanti. Venti fiabe dannate intorno alle quali, forse, persino il buio un poco indietreggia.

From the pulpy pages of Black Mask Magazine in the 1920s and '30s, through the film noir era of the 1940s, to today, noir fiction has lured many a reader and movie-goer away from the light and into the dark underbelly of society. Names such as Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, and James M. Cain; titles like The Big Sleep, The Maltese Falcon, The Postman Always Rings Twice...these have inhabited our collective consciousness for decades. Humanity, it seems, loves the dark. And within the dark, one figure stands out: that of the femme fatale.
