Description

Format: Hardcover, 272pp. ISBN: 0375412972 Publisher: Knopf Alfred A Pub. Date: May 2001 Edition Desc: 1 AMER ED ""I think he was dead before I shot him."" "With these auspicious words begins a murder mystery so utterly unlike any other that it took fifteen of Ireland's finest writers (working well below their peak) to bring it to its unlikely conclusion. The plot involves a mad search for the only manuscript of an unpublished novel by James Joyce, and features a stellar cast - including a sadistic sergeant with the unlikely name of Andy Andrews and the unforgettable mob boss Mrs. Bloom, a woman "who had tried everything but drew the line at honesty."" "Yeats Is Dead! is a novel written by fifteen Irish authors as a fund-raiser for Amnesty International, a worldwide grassroots movement that promotes and defends human rights."--BOOK JACKET.
