Fine first edition, first printing of the author's well-received 5th book. The book is without obvious fault but the dust wrapper has some light shelf wear to the top edge. As an enthusiastic collector myself I make every effort to provide a high level of service. Enquiries welcomed. Paypal accepted. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 006574

Inhaltsangabe:

Nina Hardy has been murdered. She died in the house where she grew up, killed by George, her childhood friend. But her body is never found, and she remains, a silent shade, watching the events of her own afterlife. As her brother and best friend meet and remember their childhood lives together, a remarkable story unfolds. Shade is at once an unforgettable portrait of childhood, a powerful story of love in its many forms, and a moving tragedy of lost innocence. Written with astonishing insight and perception, it confirms Neil Jordan as one of the most mesmerising voices in contemporary fiction.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Shade is Neil Jordan's first novel for ten years. His previous novels were highly acclaimed, and his collection of short stories, Night in Tunisia, won the Guardian Fiction prize. As a director, his films include 'The Company of Wolves', 'The End of the Affair', and 'The Crying Game', which won him an Oscar for Best Screenplay.
