On slr camera
The author's mother was killed by a stranger about eleven years after the Dahlia murder (which in real life has never been solved), and so the author has identified with both murders. And I guess the rich family in his novel is entirely fictional, or perhaps based on a true one. The famous Hollywood sign did originally read Hollywoodland and was intended to promote a housing development of that name. Apparently the author's own psychosexual life is dominated by the two murders, of the Dahlia and his mother, and so he transferred that necrophilia to the main character. I just never understood what character weakness made him want to find his own meaning in life through the Dahlia. In those days they didn't have a slr camera.
