The first appearance of the title in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Patrick McCabe's "The Dead School". A Modern Master of the macabre. He achieved "breakthrough" status with his third novel, "The Butcher Boy", which was shortlisted for the 1992 Booker Prize, became the basis of a very fine film by Neil Jordan, and was acclaimed as "a masterpiece of literary ventriloquism". An equally dazzling novel, "The Dead School" is the intertwined story of two Irishmen from different generations, whose lives intersect for a brief and destructive time, and then miserably, continue apart. McCabe avoids the facile or dramatic ending and delivers instead the saddest, funniest, and most horrible ending of all because it is so true to life. "McCabe may well be the lodestone of Irish fiction" (New York Observer). An absolute "must-have" title for Patrick McCabe collectors.
