A "New York Times" Notable Book for 1998. Size Length: 242 pages Height: 8.5 in Width: 5.8 in Thickness: 1.2 in Weight: 16.0 oz Industry Reviews "[This] is a story brimming with madness, violence, arcane obsession, weird learning, ghastly comedy, and odd sexual fantasy....But most importantly, Winchester recognizes it is also a tragic story and he provides the delicately sympathetic touch it deserves."
