Sobre este artículo
New York: Bantam Books, 1987. First edition. Fine.. Signed later paperback printing of the first book in Grafton's Alphabet series, introducing beloved private detective Kinsey Millhone. The title for the first book in Grafton's famous Alphabet Series was inspired by reading THE GASHLYCRUMB TINIES, a detail characteristic of the black levity that helped made the series so popular. Debuting in the same year as her fellow icon, Sara Paretsky's V.I. Warshawski, Kinsey Millhone was a detective in the classic noir tradition who upended the classic noir clichés, written by an author in conscious dialogue with her genre: "The conclusion of "A Is For Alibi" is deadly serious. It's an ingenious feminist rewriting of one of the most hateful mystery endings of all time, Mickey Spillane's misogynist masterpiece I, THE JURY" (Corrigan). 7'' x 4.25''. Original pictorial wrappers. 214, [1] pages. Signed by Grafton on title page. Light edgewear.
