As proud mama Patti Abbott notes in her blog, www.pattinase.blogspot.com, Megan Abbott has the real meat of the issue, and if your check online for the two MA articles, Carla Gugino (most relevant here perhaps for playing Karen Cisco on the series version of KAREN CISCO) will come briefly animated for you and welcome you to LA in good throaty form:

Early iPad adapters get more animation, but younger Abbott's two essays are a profile of Gugino, hyping in part a noirish short-film reboot of "The Tell-Tale Heart," and a more wide-ranging take on, well, LA noir. And yet another essay by someone else which chooses to confuse true crime magazines with pulps. Because they're all hella cool, doncha know.
