'œJust when I begin to despair that the PI novel has worn out its welcome, a writer with a fresh take reminds me why I fell in love with the genre.'�, Just when I begin to despair that the PI novel has worn out its welcome, a writer with a fresh take reminds me why I fell in love with the genre., "Just when I begin to despair that the PI novel has worn out its welcome, a writer with a fresh take reminds me why I fell in love with the genre. Sara Gran has long specialized in shaking up and revitalizing other corners of the genre world, so it's no surprise that she performs this same magic in Claire DeWitt .." --Laura Lippman "The book is beautifully written in a tight, quirky style that distinguishes Gran as one of the more original writers working today. -- Bruce DeSilva, Associated Press "The hard-living, wisecracking titular detective bounces around post-Katrina New Orleans trying to track down a missing prosecutor in this auspicious debut of a new mystery series-and the Big Easy is every bit her equal in sass and flavor." -- Elle "One of the genre's most original characters in years, reads . . . as if David Lynch directed a Raymond Chandler novel." -- CNN "Delicious and addictive." -- Salon.com "The title character is the summer's most original new detective: part Lisbeth Salander, part Veronica Mars."-- Hollywood Reporter "With Claire DeWitt and the City of the Dead , Gran elevates the detective story as literature and brings together a sophisticated mystery, a witty, antagonistic private eye, and a city she knows too well." - The Atlantic Monthly "Terrific. I love this book! Absolutely love it. This is the first fresh literary voice I've heard in years. Sara Gran recombines all the elements of good, solid story-telling and lifts something original from a well-loved form." --Sue Grafton "Critics are already labeling this one - the first of a projected series - a book 'not to be missed.' "-- Christian Science Monitor "Claire is a charmer."- New York Times Book Review "The first in a quirky, smart mystery series." -- Daily Candy"What would you get if that punkish dragon girl Lisbeth Salander met up with Jim Sallis's Lew Griffin walking the back streets of New Orleans? Or Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone tranformed herself into a tattooed magnolia driving a 4x4? Claire DeWitt . . . .DeWitt's mesmerizing character and memorable voice take your breath away." -- New Orleans Times-Picayune "Not your mother's girl detective, Claire DeWitt is a cool blend of Nancy Drew and Sid Vicious. With Claire DeWitt and the City of the Dead, Sara Gran has pulled the traditional female sleuth into the twenty-first century with a novel that's smart and hip, dark and funny.." - Alafair Burke, author of LONG GONE "This is not just a mystery novel but also a novel about mysteries; Claire DeWitt is a detective less by choice than by calling. With City of the Dead , Sara Gran has written something truly splendid and unique, and if we're all very lucky, there will be more." -- Craig Clevenger, author of The Contortionists Handbook "This is not to be missed -- Claire is a moody, hip, and meticulous investigator. Gran (Dope; Come Closer) builds an addictive sense of anticipation with a fantastical frame. Alternately gritty and dreamy, this would appeal to those who liked Colson Whitehead's The Intuitionist and readers of Charlie Huston (e.g., The Mystic Arts of Erasing All Signs of Death). Highly recommended." -- Library Journal (starred)"Captivating."-- Publishers Weekly (starred)

Synopsis
The first entry in a gritty, endlessly surprising mystery series follows the unpredictable, tough-edged, and brilliantly intuitive PI Claire DeWitt as she searches for a prosecutor who's gone missing in post-Katrina New Orleans, marking the emergence of "a distinctive new American voice in mystery fiction" (NPR's Fresh Air )., "Delicious and addictive."--Salon.com "Reads . . . as if David Lynch directed a Raymond Chandler novel."--CNN "What would you get if that punkish dragon girl Lisbeth Salander met up with Jim Sallis's Lew Griffin walking the back streets of New Orleans? Or Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone transformed herself into a tattooed magnolia driving a 4x4? Clare DeWitt, that's what you'd get . . . DeWitt's mesmerizing character and memorable voice take your breath away."-- New Orleans Times-Picayune This knock-out start to a bracingly original new series features Claire DeWitt, the world's greatest PI--at least, that's what she calls herself. A one-time teen detective in Brooklyn, she is a follower of the esoteric French detective Jacques Silette, whose mysterious handbook D tection inspired Claire's unusual practices. Claire also has deep roots in New Orleans, where she was mentored by Silette's student the brilliant Constance Darling--until Darling was murdered. When a respected DA goes missing she returns to the hurricane-ravaged city to find out why. "The hard-living, wisecracking titular detective bounces around post-Katrina New Orleans trying to track down a missing prosecutor in this auspicious debut of a new mystery series--and the Big Easy is every bit her equal in sass and flavor."-- Elle "Reminds me why I fell in love with the genre."--Laura Lippman "I love this book " -- Sue Grafton, "Delicious and addictive."--Salon.com "Reads . . . as if David Lynch directed a Raymond Chandler novel."--CNN "What would you get if that punkish dragon girl Lisbeth Salander met up with Jim Sallis's Lew Griffin walking the back streets of New Orleans?

- q***_ (4)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThese were supposed to be 75 watt bulbs but once I put them in they were more like 60. One bulb was missing out of the box and another was broken as it was not packed very well. Seller issued me a refund but only after I smashed all the bulbs I had. These kind of experiences are exactly why I do not like to order from eBay.Antwort von southernhomebuyers- Verkäufer southernhomebuyers hat auf Bewertung reagiert.- Verkäufer southernhomebuyers hat auf Bewertung reagiert.The buyer complained about the bulbs, I asked them to break the bulbs send me a picture and i refunded their money. I did nothing wrong this person is new to ebay and apparently has no idea what they are doing
