<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A reluctant assassin is born. A con man tries to sell the Grand Central clock. A superhero is dying to lose her powers. <p/>In thirteen fast-moving stories, the author of <i>Hipster Death Rattl</i>e explores the tragic world of noir fiction with a wide range of Latinx characters. These stories define noir as tales of people who fall not from great heights but from the stoop and the sidewalk. <p/>A follow-up to the author's <i>Roachkiller and Other Stories</i>, which received the Spinetingler Award for Best Anthology/Short Story Collection, this contains a sequel to that anthology's eponymous story. <p/>Praise for NOIRYORICAN: <p/>"It strikes an authentic tone that rings true to my seasoned ear. The array of characters encompasses the Nuyorican experience devoid of sentiment or artifice. Score one for the home team." -Edwin Torres, author of <i>Carlito's Way</i> <p/>"With considerable style, poise, and humor, Richie Narvaez's <i>Noiryorican</i> unpacks a world of grifters, street punks and hangers-on just trying to get by in the big city when the odds are stacked against them. At his street poet best Narvaez gives Jonathan Lethem and Junot Diaz a run for their money. I loved this collection."-Adrian McKinty, bestselling author of <i>The Chain</i> <p/>"In this eclectic collection of noir stories, Narvaez takes the reader across the boroughs of New York City, Puerto Rico, LA, and Texas. Open this book and take this ride through the mazes of Narvaez's imagination."-Ivelisse Rodriguez, author of <i>Love War Stories</i>
