Hard Rain Falling
Don Carpenter
Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. Hard Rain Falling by Don Carpenter is a deeply philosophical novel about race, class, and sexuality.
What We Say: "One of my favourite books of all time, Carpenter's sparse style is earth-shattering in its ability to make a point while telling a story that could change your understanding of how we navigate our lived experience. Noir at its very best" - Jamie Styles
What They Say: "Hard Rain Falling is a unique read; violent, tender, inexorable, and melancholic; a beat-era book of disafected young men deviod of On The Road euphoria but more poignant and gripping for its fatalistic grounding. The small lives contained herein are indelible" - Richard Price
