Another Life is the end of a journey that began with Flood, Andrew Vachss' first novel featuring career criminal Burke and
his Family of Choice. "I didn't set out to write a series. Who but a
terminal narcissist would?" the author says of his 1985 debut. But
twenty-three years—and seventeen Burke novels—later, Andrew Vachss
is finally bringing down the curtain on a series that has been
described as "urban nightmares" by Publishers Weekly, and
"strong, gritty, gut-bucket stuff" by the Chicago Tribune.
Anyone who has felt a part of the family that includes recurring
series characters Max, the Mole, Michelle, the Prof, Terry,
Clarence, and Mama—characters the Seattle Post-Intelligencer says "are as sharply defined as if they were etched in steel"—will
want to be there for the end of the journey, as best-selling, award-winning author Andrew Vachss ties up the loose ends, and sends his
Family of Choice off to ... Another Life. Click here to read text from Another Life. Click here to listen to audio from Another Life. [mp3 / 1.1MB] |
