A. A. Attanasio, actually, who may be cheered to know of a
fan of that novel, with its troubled publication history.
Attanasio's work is rarely too close to hb, but not a little
has its noirish aspects...contemporary fantasy THE MOON'S
WIFE or sf ARC OF THE DREAM come to mind... TM

Noir, this evanescent color...
On the other hand there was a "novelization" of certain
episodes of the Trojan War, by A.A.Atanasio and Robert S.
Henderson : "Silent" (1996) A member of a street gang, the
Street Gypsies, seduces the wife of a Mafia boss in Boston...
This pastiche uses some of the best known events of this War
as background for its modern story. Note: The same episodes
were already used in lit works by a Greek guy aka
Homer...
