"If you have to subdivide me as novelist," says Ellroy, "I
would say I'm a historical novelist. I think the four 'L.A.
Quartet' books are so dense in period detail and historical
subtext, that you can call me a historical novelist going
back to 'The Black Dahlia' and then, most especially,
with
'American Tabloid' and 'The Cold Six Thousand.' Those are
historical novels on a grand scale."
