"Forceful and unsparing in its revelations. . . . Marvelous fury, passion and energy." --San Francisco Chronicle
"A remarkable memoir . . . Once again . . . Ellroy [has] come up with the goods." --The Economist "Terrible, exhilarating, exhauting, entertaining and downright tragic. It's also brutally honest." --Las Vegas Review Journal "Perhaps the most confessional memoir I've ever read." --The Dallas Morning NewsLegendary crime writer James Ellroy gives us a searing, candid memoir about his obsession with women, his related search for atonement, and his literary career.
The year was 1958. Jean Hilliker had divorced her hustler husband and resurrected her maiden name. Her son, James, was ten years old. In a dark moment, he “summoned her dead.” Three months later she was murdered. The curse was evoked, and James Ellroy began his unending pursuit of women. Here, he unsparingly describes his shattered childhood, his delinquent teens, his writing life, his love affairs and marriages, his nervous breakdown, and the beginning of a relationship with an extraordinary woman who may just be the long-sought Her. A startling revelation, a treatise on guilt and the power of malediction, and above all, a heartfelt confession,The Hilliker Curse is a brilliant, soul-baring revelation of self.
