I Just had the privilege of being present at Jake Hinkson's first public interview for French radio. Well almost, as everyone was present including the public, but French radio had characteristically decided to go on strike this afternoon. All this took place in the chamber of commerce of the city of Lyon, in France, host to the annual prestigious crime and mystery book fair 'Quais du Polar', this weekend. Jake Hinkson's first two novels have been published in French this month and during a one-hour interview he provided background to himself, his passion for noir and his neo-noir novel 'Hell on Church Street'. It proved to be a fascinating conversation centered around the role of religion in Jake Hinkson's version of noir. Within its context of Southern Baptism, Jake showed how his trilogy of noir books link the sin of crime with 3 different stages in the arc of religious observance, from professional opportunistic religion, through the heart-felt search for true religion to the final point of religious fanaticism. The French public was clearly mesmerized by this rare insight in the lesser known aspects of life in the southern US. If their applause was anything to go by, 'L'Enfer de Church Street' should become a smash hit at French booksellers!
So great to meet you, Michael! Thanks for all the kind words!
