Sag Harbor, New York: The Permanent Press, 1991. AU6 - A first edition (no additional printings) hardcover book SIGNED by author on the title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket that is mylar protected. Book has some light stains on the page edges, dust jacket and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. 8.75"x6", 271 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Dylan Klein, a bush league insurance investigator, returns to his old Brooklyn neighborhood for his mother's funeral. Alienated from his family and by the rituals of his faith, unable to reach the grief he knows is there, Klein sets out on a journey fraught with treason, murder, and betrayal. Klein and his close friend, ex-New York City Police detective Johnny MacClough, stumble through an odyssey fueled by the winds of change: winds themselves created by a thawing in the Cold War. Klein and MacClough are buffeted as the two super powers struggle to erase some potentially embarrassing loose ends left dangling since WWII. Another player, a "wanna-be" power, injects poison into the brew in an attempt to snag the loose ends for its own purposes: political blackmail or, maybe, just revenge. Ultimately, however, Life Goes Sleeping is not a spy/thriller, but rather a hardboiled detective novel rooted in the traditions of the 30's and 40's. Klein is a man trading water for his life. When one of his clients is brutally murdered, he is forced to learn how to swim or drown. Johnny MacClough is both his lifeguard and his instructor. These men are too preoccupied with the small picture - namely, their own survival - to worry about politics and matters of state. For them, the puzzle pieces multiply. The game keeps getting more complex, but someone's neglected to send them a rule book. Working with an intensity born of desperation to untangle the web that has trapped them, Klein and MacClough's ultimate rewards are discoveries about their own lives - lives that will no longer go sleeping.. Signed by Author. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
