Drive, Paperback
Descriere
Much later, as he sat with his back against an inside wall of a Motel 6 just north of Phoenix, watching the pool of blood lap toward him, Driver would wonder whether he had made a terrible mistake. Later still, of course, there d be no doubt. But for now Driver is, as they say, in the moment. And the moment includes this blood lapping toward him, the pressure of dawn s late light at windows and door, traffic sounds from the interstate nearby, the sound of someone weeping in the next room . . . Thus begins Drive , the story of a man who works as a stunt driver by day and a getaway driver by night. He drives, that s all until he s double-crossed. Powerful and stylistically brilliant, Drive has been hailed by critics as the ""perfect piece of noir fiction"" ( The New York Times Book Review ) and an instant classic. ""
