Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The brilliant debut novel from the bestselling author of City of Thieves and the co-creator of the HBO series Game of Thrones, about a white-collar drug dealer's last night out in New York City before going to jailAdapted as a feature film by Spike Lee starring Edward Norton and Philip Seymour HoffmanNovels like The 25th Hour don't fall out of trees every day. The tone is dark and intense; its elegant style is cut on the raw side; and the characters come from places we've all been. The New York TimesAll Monty Brogan ever really wanted when he grew up was to be a fireman. Now he's about to start a seven-year stretch in the federal penitentiary for drug dealing. With just twenty-four hours of freedom to go, he prowls the city with his girlfriend and his two best friends from high schoola high-flying bond trader and an idealistic teacher. As the minutes count down, Monty seizes one last chance to stack the odds in his favor. Hurtling from the money pits of Wall Street to Manhattan's downtown lounge and club scene, from the enclaves of the Russian mob to the old immigrant neighborhoods, The 25th Hour evokes the pulsing rhythms and diamond-hard edges of a city in the raw, illusory hours between midnight and dawn. A taut and mesmerizing tale of an urban purgatory suspended between the crime and the punishment, The 25th Hour is a major player in contemporary noir fiction. All Monty Brogan ever wanted was to be a fireman. Now he's just got 24 hours before he will start a seven-year stretch in the federal penitentiary for drug dealing. As the minutes count down, Monty seizes one last chance to stack the odds in his favor. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
