The Girl in the Window Won't Drop A Novella

Author David Alexander ranks among the greatest American writers; a storyteller who cuts straight to the nerve with the cold efficiency, deadly skill and calculated yet dread artistry of a surgeon's scalpel, Alexander here, as always, is simply stunning. His brilliant novelette, The Girl in the Window Won't Drop, confirms Alexander's place as the most celebrated prose stylist since Hemingway. Perhaps as importantly, David Alexander here gives us one of those rare accomplishments by an author whose narrative skills are clearly at their peak and can sustain an ambitious plot that ranges around the world with complex interconnections, much like the daring young man on the trapeze who flies through the air with the greatest of ease. Author David Alexander is one of contemporary world literature's most original voices and The Girl in the Window Won't Drop is an example of why this is so.
