Collection "NRF".

"A detective novel for some, a popular song with fabulous verve for others, Fried Herrings in Blood defies all classification, astonishing in its inventiveness and richness. The very rare and little-known Jean Duperray, with Fried Herrings in Blood, became the delightful novelist of a bloody news item for which he invented a language capable of capturing its intensity and energy, an unexpected and terribly musical language. His fascination with fairs, circuses, entertainment, and popular expression, coupled with an attraction to subversion, transgression, and even revolution, unfolds in this dramatic and thrilling narrative. It may seem harsh, gnarled, full-bodied to sensitive souls, who will not be surprised by its spectacular or rough content. Fiction according to Jean Duperray is no romance. "Brutal," Michel Audiard would have said. A tasty and sanguine rediscovery."
