From the introduction by Joyce Carol Oates: "...The most civilized and 'decent' among us find that we are complicit with the most brutal murderers. We enter into literally unspeakable alliances - of which we dare not speak except through the obliquities and indirections of fiction, poetry, and visual art of the sort gathered here in New Jersey Noir.

Critic reviews

"Oates's introduction to Akashic's noir volume dedicated to the Garden State, with its evocative definition of the genre, is alone worth the price of the book... Poems by C.K. Williams, Paul Muldoon, and others." (Publishers Weekly)
"It was inevitable that this fine noir series would reach New Jersey. It took longer than some readers might have wanted, but, oh boy, was it worth the wait... More than most of the entries in the series, this volume is about mood and atmosphere more than it is about plot and character... It should go without saying that regular readers of the noir series will seek this one out, but beyond that, the book also serves as a very good introduction to what is a popular but often misunderstood term and style of writing." (Booklist, Starred Review)
"A lovingly collected assortment of tales and poems that range from the disturbing to the darkly humorous." (Shelf Awareness)
