DARRYL WIMBERLEY discusses and signs
Kaleidoscope
(Toby, $24.95)
|
"Hapless, handsome Jack Romaine, a small-time gambler and drinker in 1929 Cincinnati, tracks a mysterious woman who's the key to a hidden fortune in Wimberley's evocative mystery... Best known for his Florida-based Bear Raines series, Wimberley invests both Jack and the carnie freaks with distinct personalities and common dignity. This vividly captured subculture has its own grotesque charm and beauty," said Publishers Weekly. And Kirkus said: "While the final twist isn't obvious, it also is not nearly as remarkable as the genuine warmth the author uses to conjure an alienated but loving community of outcasts..." Wimberley is the author of two critically acclaimed literary works, A Tinker's Damn and The King of Colored Town, along with the Gulf Coast noir series featuring Barrett Raines, Special Agent for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement: A Rock and a Hard Place, Dead Man's Bay, Strawman's Hammock, and Pepperfish Keys. ALSO: -- A Tinker's Damn (Macmurray & Beck, 2000, $9.00) SIGNED, VF/VF as new. -- The King of Colored Town (Toby, 2007, $18.00) SIGNED, VF/VF as new. |
