The Postman Always Rings Twice - James M. Cain [43]
Rings Twice_, was published when he was forty-two and at once became a sensation. It was tried for obscenity in Boston, was said by Albert Camus to have inspired his own book, _The Stranger_, and is now a classic. Cain followed it the next year with _Double Indemnity_, leading Ross Macdonald to write years later, "Cain has won unfading laurels with a pair of native American masterpieces, _Postman_ and _Double Indemnity_, back to back." Cain published eighteen books in all and was working on his autobiography at the time of his death.
