About This Item
New York. Pegasus Books. 2016. Flat black paper boards with gilt lettering to spine. First Edition, first printing with requisite number line ending in 1. Unclipped ($25.99) jacket shows minimal shelf wear that is protected with removable mylar cover. Inscribed on title page by author. Seventeen authors write a story about seventeen paintings by Edward Hopper. "Highthawks", perhaps Hopper's best known work, becomes a story by Michael Connelly. Stephen King gets his chance on "The Music Room" and Joyce Carol Oates handles "The Woman In The Window". More paintings results in more stories with each individual story approximately 16 pages in length. A book easy to pick up, hard to put down. 6x9.25 in. 278 pg.
