what do you call this type of writing? it seems modern. where they are like hyper aware of the reader, always trying to be hip and stylish? i hate writing and am horrible (i just read) so maybe one of you writer larper anons can better explain it? its written like the narration of a stereotypical film noir private eye type thing. there must be a name for it

imagine reading your favorite book in this style
