Pulp Champagne

PULP CHAMPAGNE
"Lorenz Heller sought to accomplish the same goal he sought in writing his novels, that is, create crime fiction that offered a more complex and nuanced story featuring richer characterizations than was normally regarded as "appropriate" to the audience or "typical" to the medium.
"The thirteen stories included in this volume show Heller's work seeking a more mature expression of story, characterization and theme. These stories retain the pulp fiction characteristics of a simple story told using intriguing settings and engaging protagonists, but all the stories in this collection feature plots driven by character..."-Bill Kelly from his introduction
