About This Item
Crown Publishers New York, 2010 Stunning reviews, which are so good I think we can say this is a writer to watch. The Washington Post said "Author Matthew Gallaway has taken a great risk with his first novel by creating an intricate, multilayered tale that slides from past to present, from Europe to New York, from opera to pop. But despite the complexity, "The Metropolis Case" engages the reader emotionally on every page." And The New York Times said "Its to the credit of Matthew Gallaways enchanting, often funny first novel that it doesnt require a corresponding degree of obsession from readers, but may leave them similarly transported: the book is so well written theres hardly a lazy sentence here and filled with such memorable lead and supporting players that it quickly absorbs you into its worlds." - This perfect first printing of the wold first edition is SIGNED on the title page, and was bought direct from the writer. A protected jacket and two colour board binding makes this a fine looking novel for the collector. This book is so good it must lead on to greatness. My tip for a prize or two.
