About This Item
388 Pages. Signed by the author on a card on the first blank page from the front. The dust jacket is Not price-clipped.
This enthralling murder mystery is based on a true-to-life event, though reads like a classic fictional novel. The book's dust jacket is in a Fine condition with only very slight wearing at the top and bottom edges of the spine keeping it from being in a Like-New condition. The interior book, however, is in a Fine to Like-New condition with no visible extraneous markings, distractions, or detriments throughout it, and thus all of its printing is in a very well-preserved and enjoyable condition and the sewn-in bindings remain tight and therefore are sound. The book has the feel of a never-read book.
If you order this fun reading book from us, we will carefully wrap it up, then pad and box it and mail it right away to you with both tracking and insurance on it and it will come with our honest appreciation for your order.
Synopsis
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a work by John Berendt. The book was Berendt's first, and became a The New York Times bestseller for 216 weeks following its debut. The book was subsequently made into a 1997 movie directed by Clint Eastwood based loosely on Berendt's story.
Reviews
i loved this book, and the movie too
This book has everything one wants in a good read: A mystery, a terrific and unique geographical place, amazing and eccentric characters and a very well written story told by an excellent narrator and observer. Plus it is based on real events which if this were fiction--would seem unbelievable.The movie is a pale echo so do read the book and only see the movie for Lady Chablis's appearance.
This book is a great Murder mystery in the same themes as Sherlock Holmes Mysteries.Just when you think you have it fiqured out- you don't!The end will come as a great surprise!I loved it. Recommend to mystery lovers everywhere.
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a sublime and seductive reading experience. Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, this enormously engaging portrait of a most beguiling Southern city has become a modern classic.
