James M. Cain’s zodiac sign is Cancer. According to astrologers, the sign of Cancer belongs to the element of Water, just like Scorpio and Pisces. Guided by emotion and their heart, they could have a hard time blending into the world around them. Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.
James M. Cain was born in the Year of the Dragon. A powerful sign, those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Dragon are energetic and warm-hearted, charismatic, lucky at love and egotistic. They’re natural born leaders, good at giving orders and doing what’s necessary to remain on top. Compatible with Monkey and Rat.
An American author, journalist, and early hardboiled crime fiction writer, he is known for works such as The Postman Always Rings Twice, Serenade, and The Butterfly. Many of his novels and stories were adapted into films.

A music lover, he wrote several novels (including Career in C Major, Serenade, and Mildred Pierce) in which opera figures prominently.
