Cornell Woolrich and Transmedia Noir: Crime Fiction Studies Volume 4, Issue 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781399517652)

Cornell Woolrich and Transmedia Noir uses the oeuvre of famed mystery writer Cornell Woolrich (1903-1968) as an optic into the media networks of American pulp fiction and the "weird tales" (in the parlance of the time) that were a seedbed of noir. Woolrich's fiction was widely published in thriller magazines like Argosy and Black Mask, and his work was a frequent source for radio anthologies, television series, and film adaptations. Tracking the transmedia circulation of Woolrich's stories and their various adaptations allows a rethinking of film noir as part of a broader "noir mediascape" during this era.
