Hardboiled
A uniquely American style of writing crime fiction pioneered by Dashiell Hammett, refined by Raymond Chandler, and endlessly imitated since by writers such as Mickey Spillane. Hardboiled fiction is most commonly associated with detective, short stories and novels. It is distinguished by an unsentimental portrayal of crime, violence and sex.
