Descrizione libro Softcover. Condizione: New. Product DescriptionNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER This superbly written true-crime story (The New York Times Book Review) masterfully brings together the tales of a serial killer in 1970s Alabama and of Harper Lee, the beloved author of To Kill a Mockingbird, who tried to write his story.Reverend Willie Maxwell was a rural preacher accused of murdering five of his family members, but with the help of a savvy lawyer, he escaped justice for years until a relative assassinated him at the funeral of his last victim. Despite hundreds of witnesses, Maxwells murderer was acquitted-thanks to the same attorney who had previously defended the reverend himself. Sitting in the audience during the vigilantes trial was Harper Lee, who spent a year in town reporting on the Maxwell case and many more trying to finish the book she called The Reverend.Cep brings this remarkable story to life, from the horrifying murders to the courtroom drama to the racial politics of the Deep South, while offering a deeply moving portrait of one of our most revered writers.ReviewOne of the Best Books of the YearThe New York Times * The Washington Post * Time * Dallas Morning News * The EconomistCaptivating. . . . A spellbinding true crime story. -The New York Times Book ReviewA triumph on every level. One of the losses to literature is that Harper Lee never found a way to tell a gothic true-crime story shed spent years researching. Casey Cep has excavated this mesmerizing story and tells it with grace and insight and a fierce fidelity to the truth. -David Grann, author of Killers of the Flower MoonAn enthralling work of narrative nonfiction. . . . Cep delivers edge-of-your-seat courtroom drama while brilliantly reinventing Southern Gothic. -O, The Oprah MagazineThe sort of story that even Lee would have been proud to write. -Michael Lewis, The New York TimesA marvel. -TimeImpossible to put down. -Helen Macdonald, author of H Is for HawkRemarkable, thoroughly researched. . . . Cep manages the feat that all great nonfiction aspires to: combining the clean precision of fact with the urgency of gossip. -The New York Review of Books"Fascinating. . . . Lyrically composed." -Minneapolis Star Tribune"Stunning." -Financial TimesA rich, ambitious, beautifully written book. -The Washington Post[A] well-told, ingeniously structured double mystery. -The EconomistA gripping, incredibly well-written portrait of not only Harper Lee, but of mid-20th century Alabama. . . . What I didnt see coming was the emotional response Id have as I blazed through the last 20 pages of the book-yet there I was, weeping. -Ilana Masad, NPRA brilliant take on the mystery of inspiration and the even darker mysteries of the human heart. -PeopleA compelling hybrid of a novel, at once a true-crime thriller, courtroom drama, and miniature biography of Harper Lee. -Southern LivingTheres a stirring poetry to Furious Hours that eludes most contemporary nonfiction. . . . [The book] fills in the gap of Lees post-Mockingbird career with insatiable curiosity and impressive research. It reveals not just her intellectual interests, but within them, her personal relationships and motivations. -Entertainment WeeklyGripping and meticulous, Ceps work doesnt make us choose between fidelity and style. -VultureThis riveting account of both the murders and Lees reporting, writing, and editing process is fascinating for its behind-the-scenes look at one of the Souths cherished creative minds. -Garden & GunEssential reading. -Publishers Weekly (starred review)Cep paints a vivid picture of the political and social makeup of a small Southern town, where family trees and the organizational charts of local institutions intersect often; where memories are long; and where the collective conscience of a community sometimes carries more weight than the law. -The Atlanta Journal-ConstitutionA riveting true crime story, and a dazzling.
