IT HAPPENED IN BOSTON? New York: Random House, [1968, i.e. January 1969]. Octavo, cloth. First edition. Psychological crime thriller. A cult classic first published in 1969, this first novel by Greenan continues to defy classification. Described by the critics as "a magic spell of a book" and "an exuberant comedy" that is also "superbly macabre," the Wall Street Journal critic, Edmund Fuller summed it up in 1969: "Pity and terror mix with comedy; suspense with reverie. And a question haunts us: What happens, really? Where do events and the narrator’s mind part ways?" The result is a book has withstood time and been published internationally. Random House reissued it with a foreword by Jonathan Lethem for their Modern Library in 2003. "There is nothing quite like a Greenan novel of suspense." - Newell Dunlap. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. A lovely copy. (#161836).
