Ha, thanks for the question. It's always fun to discuss Jim Thompson.
On the top of my head, I'd say Pop 1.280, The Getaway and Nothing More Than Murder. They'll give you a good idea what he's (in)famous for.
Enjoy!(less)

It's not exactly a fictional world but I love the Roaring Twenties. I'd do field research for my new book and watch some silent films that have gone lost.(less)

Magnus Stanke and 67 other people liked Francesc's review of An Air That Kills:
An Air That Kills by Margaret Millar
"La trama no tiene el más mínimo interés. Parece una telenovela barata del domingo por la tarde. Un aburrimiento total.
Una lectura insípida.

The plot does not have the slightest interest. It looks like a cheap soap opera on Sunday afternoon. Total bore" Read more of this review »

Haile Selassie I
“Until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned, everywhere is war. And until there are no longer first-class and second-class citizens of any nation, until the colour of a man's skin is of no more significance than the colour of his eyes. And until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race, there is war. And until that day, the dream of lasting peace, world citizenship, rule of international morality, will remain but a fleeting illusion to be pursued, but never attained... now everywhere is war.”

- Popularized by Bob Marley in the song War
Haile Selassie I, Selected Speeches

Woody Allen
“I just can't listen to any more Wagner, you know...I'm starting to get the urge to conquer Poland.”
Woody Allen

Timothy Snyder
“Be calm when the unthinkable arrives. Modern tyranny is terror management. When the terrorist attack comes, remember that authoritarians exploit such events in order to consolidate power. The sudden disaster that requires the end of checks and balances, the dissolution of political parties, the suspension of freedom of expression, the right to a fair trial, and so on, is the oldest trick in the Hitlerian book. DO NOT FALL FOR IT.”
Timothy Snyder, On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century
