I do not know which of his titles was selected by City
Lights, but Thierry Jonquet is an interesting author. His
best Noir works are, IMO, "Les orpailleurs" (= Gold Diggers)
and
"Moloch", and his other novels are still far above average
and most of them fascinating. One of the very good
contemporary French authors.
Speaking of French Noir novels I like to mention Marc
Villard, talented writer who uses Jazz, and Jazz musicians,
in many of his recent books and shorts. But I do not think he
was translated into English yet.
