The phrase as it is doesn't really make clear sense. It could potentially be some sort of very local or made - up expression. Maybe 'your house' is being used in a very abstract way, like the value or essence of your house will somehow 'pay' in relation to crime novels, but without more context it's hard to be certain.
I'm not entirely sure. 'La' might be a misspelling. If it was 'your house will pay for crime novels', it could mean that the money or resources from your house (maybe through selling it or using its value in some way) will be used to buy crime novels.
It's a very strange phrase. 'Your house will pay' is an odd construction on its own. If we assume 'la' is a mistake and it should be 'for', perhaps it's a creative way of saying that the financial situation related to your house (such as rent income, or equity) will be used to purchase crime novels. However, without further clarification, it remains quite ambiguous.
I'm not entirely sure what it specifically means as it's a rather odd statement. It could potentially be a very creative or metaphorical way of saying that something related to your house will be the cost or consequence in a crime fiction scenario, like perhaps a crime in a story takes place at your house and there are consequences to it.
I'm afraid this phrase is rather unclear. It might be a typo. If it were 'your house will pay for crime novels', it would be a simple statement about using the resources associated with your house (e.g., savings from not paying rent if you own the house) to buy crime novels.
I'm not entirely sure what this phrase means exactly. It seems rather strange. Maybe it could be a very creative or symbolic way of saying that your home or the resources related to your house could be used to finance or be equivalent to the value of a novel in some unusual context.
No. It's not a common phrase at all in crime fiction. Most crime fiction phrases are more straightforward like 'the suspect has an alibi' or 'the crime scene was contaminated'.
It could be a very strange or symbolic statement. Maybe it's suggesting that there is a new or unique story (the 'novel') associated with the entrance areas of a house, like the doorposts and gates. It might imply that there are tales to be told about the comings and goings at that location.
One of the best LA crime novels is 'The Big Sleep' by Raymond Chandler. It features the iconic detective Philip Marlowe and has a complex web of mystery and crime set in LA.
It could refer to a specific place name or have a certain context-dependent meaning. Without further context, it's hard to give a precise translation.
When you say 'a la pulp fiction', it often suggests a resemblance to the characteristics of pulp fiction. This might include bold and exciting storylines, vivid characters, or a certain rawness in the narrative.
Definitely not. Common expressions usually have a more straightforward meaning that is easily understood. This phrase is so ambiguous that it can't be a common one.
Buyout usually referred to a business model for entertainment content such as novels, movies, and television programs. The audience had to pay a certain fee to obtain the complete copyright, including the rights to play, download, and transmit. The purpose of this model was to encourage viewers to buy copyrights to support the creation and operation of content creators. Usually, there would be a "license fee" or "copyright fee" that would be paid by the audience. The fees paid by viewers could be used to purchase digital versions of the content that could be played, downloaded, or shared on various platforms. If the audience chose to spread the content to other platforms, they would have to pay an additional "copyright transfer fee" or other fees. The business model of pay-to-buy may vary in different countries and regions, but it is usually based on digital technologies such as streaming media and cloud computing. This business model has become one of the common models in the modern entertainment industry, providing a mutually beneficial partnership between content creators and viewers.
