KL Noir : Red

 

TITLE: KL Noir : Red

AUTHOR: -

PUBLISHER: Buku Fixi

LANGUAGE: Malaysian English (Menglish?)

DESCRIPTION:
KL NOIR: Red is the first of 4 volumes about the Malaysian capital city's dark side. There are 14 short stories and one essay about the seedy, the sinister and sometimes the spooky. You will find murder, drug-dealing, kidnapping, sexual depravity, prostitution, celebrity secrets, suicides, academic rivalry, gangsters, police brutality, cannibalism, black magic, creepy rituals, political corruption and even busking.

MY REVIEW:
To be honest, I don't really read Malay novel (or rather Malay-made novel but I do read few Malay novels before). Walking in Kinokuniya and saw this book, it's kinda different from the other book. Read the description, attracted with the city's dark side or NOIR, straight away grab the books (yeah, bookSSS, Red and White). This book is different from other novel that I read (both English and Malay). The stories are more open and free, compare to other novel where you filter everything to the extend that black is white. Kalau tak paham, nasib ar. And by the way, this is book for young adult (or for people who matured enough) to my point of view.
