Description

Murder is Absurd by Patricia McGerr. This copy was Published for The Crime Club by Doubleday & Compant, Inc. New York. 'Young Kenny Pierson's first play was called A Suburb of Elsinore. It seemed nothing more athn a jumble of obscure ideas, incomprehensible dialogue - the whole thing meaningless. Except to Kenny's stepfather, whose initial disgust with the play (as a play) gave way to incredulity . . . and then to fear. Even the title, A Suburb of Elsinore, carried a warning, invoking sinister images of Shakespeare's classic drama of the family triangle and its consequent murder, revenge, and tragedy. How much could the boy possibly remember? And, if he remembered enough . . ? This is a first-rate suspence novel about the theatre and the people who live and work . . . and sometimes die in it.'
