The torrid story of Frank Chambers, the amoral drifter, Cora, the sullen and brooding wife, and Nick Papadakis, the amiable but inconvenient husband, has become a classic of its kind, and established Cain as a major novelist with a spare and vital prose style and a bleak vision of America. THE AUTHOR James M. Cain was born in Annapolis, Maryland, in 1892. Having served in the US Army in World War 1, he became a journalist in Baltimore and New York in the 1920s. He later worked as a screenwriter in Hollywood. Cain died in 1977.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orion Publishing Co","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45048511889559,"sku":"9780752864365","price":944.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780752864365.webp?v=1769222830","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-postman-always-rings-twice-9780752864365","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
