Black Mask 4: The Parrot That Wouldn T Talk: And Other Crime Fiction from the Legendary Magazine
by Otto Penzler (9781611744675)

From its launch in 1920 until its demise in 1951, the magazine "Black Mask" published pulp crime fiction. The first hard-boiled detective stories appeared on its pages. Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, Erle Stanley Gardner and John D. MacDonald got their start in "Black Mask." The urban crime stories that appeared in "Black Mask" helped to shape American culture. Modern computer games, films, and television are rooted in the fiction popularized by "the seminal and venerated mystery pulp magazine" ("Booklist").
Never before on audio, these vintage stories are darkest of the dark, and the best of the best.
