Graeme Macrae Burnet, author of the Booker nominated 'His Bloody Project' and 'Case Study' joins us in the bookshop to introduce 'A Case of Matricide', the concluding book of his Georges Gorski trilogy.In the unremarkable French town of Saint-Louis, a mysterious stranger stalks the streets; an elderly woman believes her son is planning to do away with her; a prominent manufacturer drops dead. Between visits to the town's hostelries, Chief Inspector Georges Gorski ponders the connections, if any, between these events, while all the time grappling with his own domestic and existential demons.
Graeme Macrae Burnet once again pierces the respectable bourgeois facade of small-town life in this, the concluding part of his trilogy of Gorski novels. He injects a wry humour into the tiniest of details and delves into the darkest recesses of his characters' minds, but above all provides an entertaining, profound and moving read.
Wednesday 6th November, 7:30pm. The Bookshop. Doors open 6:50pm.
