Description:
Dennis Lehane's previous thrillers Mystic River (2001) and Shutter Island (2003) were best-sellers and much talked about books. The Given Day (2008) is an exploration of a rich cast of characters involved in stressed situations in Boston at the end of the First World War. It was a time of upheaval and calamity, and what Lehane does is take us inside his fictional world. The famous baseball player Babe Ruth features in this memorable story. Compared to E L Doctorow for its literary play with real historical figures it is Lehane's most mature novel. Lee Child does a brilliant job is setting out for us Dennis Lehane's journey as a writer in his appreciation for this edition. H e asks the worrying question has Dennis left crime writing behind?This signed limited is one of only 80 numbered copies, produced by arrangement with Transworld. It is bound in leather with marbled paper over boards and coloured top edge. It is a heavy volume with 704 pp. Still a landmark book for Lehane.
