白色爵士

Ellroy's fragmented style can be challenging but also immersive. I'm curious whether this structure was planned from the start or developed during revisions.

The protagonists operate in a gray area that makes it hard to root for them but also impossible to look away. How did others interpret their motivations?

The setting feels so vivid and textured. I wonder if Ellroy drew from personal experiences or historical research to craft this atmosphere.
