Abstract:The various points of similarity between "The Blue Hotel" and "The Killers" relate to the mutual theme of the impersonality and the inevitability of evil. In neither story is murder an isolated event, but a demonstration of the evil inherent and inevitable in human society, of the violence beneath the tranquil surface of modern civilization.
