James Ellroy My Dark Places
Knopf November 1996 0679441859 / 9780679441854 First Edition Signed By Author
Hardcover Used - Very Good Fine Very collectable condition. Appears unread, crisp, clean, bright and tight. First Edition, First printing. Now protected with Durafold unattached to jacket. Near fine book/Near Fine Dust Jacket. BEAUTIFUL copy. Satisfaction guarantee. The DJ design is brilliant: It shows on the reverse side a reproduction of the Front-Page headline news on the murder, with a photograph of the boy James Ellroy. Presents a new twist to both the personal biography and detective thriller genres by being a true first-person account of the author's mother's unsolved murder. An event which haunted him for the rest of his life, James Ellroy finally unleashes pent-up emotions in a beautifully and unforgettably written 'reconstruction' that is both coolly factual and emotionally harrowing. James Ellroy became a writer (and a great one at that) because of his mother's death. His remembrance of his mother, flaws and all, is a loving son's homage, and is one of the finest achievements by an American author in the confessional mode. The basis of his entire oeuvre, this is a 'must-have' title for James Ellroy collectors. This copy is prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black pen on a tipped-in page by James Ellroy. hardcover. 1.00
