«Cançó d'amor a Manhattan» is the crime novel by William Irish, published by Edicions 62 in paperback (176 pages, in Catalan).
The protagonist narrates in the first person a tragic love story that leads him into a hostile world heavy with foreboding. The femme fatale, a classic figure of crime fiction, shapes the narrator's sentimental journey, and his poetic instinct drives him inexorably toward crime and the destruction of his world.
Originally published as 'Manhattan Love Song' (1932); this Catalan edition, translated by Esther Roig Giménez, belongs to the 'Seleccions de la Cua de Palla' collection.
