Hardtalk speaks to the man who has been called 'America’s
greatest living crime writer'. Through works such as the Black
Dalia and LA Confidential, James Ellroy has created a uniquely
dark portrait of America. His is a nightmare vision of crazed
killers and corrupt cops. He writes of what he knows – his own
mother was murdered when he was a child. So is that simple,
terrible fact the key to understanding all the words he has ever
written?
