Review

"[B]rilliantly constructed and many-tentacled..."

"[A] majestic, fiery epic that moves him far beyond the confines of the crime genre."

"[A] historical epic that is easily the most ambitious work of Dennis Lehane's career...."

Annotation

Throughout his career, Dennis Lehane (MYSTIC RIVER) has expanded the scope and breadth of his vision, until calling him a crime writer fails to do justice to the complexity of the issues his novels embrace. Though THE GIVEN DAY's protagonist is a Boston cop, the novel--set in 1919 during the bloody Boston police riots--is an epic historical work that tackles issues of racism, baseball, class warfare, and the dreams and corruption of American democracy. Danny Coughlin, a policeman from a wealthy family, finds his values tested by a strike, an Irish girl, and his friendship with a black criminal on the run from the law. Selected as one of the 2008 Best Books of the Year by Publishers Weekly.
