It Happened in Boston? by Russell Henry Greenan

Originally published in 1968 to critical acclaim, Russell H. Greenan s brilliant, audacious mystery novel It Happened in Boston? quickly became an underground sensation and has emerged over forty years later as a genuine cult classic. In this breathtakingly imaginative book now appearing in audio for the first time we enter the mind of an unnamed artist of prodigious talent and intelligence who is determined to correct the world s wrongs via a direct confrontation with the Almighty, no matter what the consequences. A spellbinding tale told by a memorably unreliable narrator, It Happened in Boston? places you inside a vivid world that brilliantly and surprisingly interweaves art, genius, love, madness, betrayal, God and murder.

In 2003 IHIB? was reprinted by the Modern Library with a new introduction by celebrated writer Jonathan Lethem and an afterword by the author, both included in this audio version.

Russell H. Greenan, on his way to becoming a novelist, grew up in the Bronx, served in the navy, sold industrial engines, and ran several curio shops in the Boston area. His thirteen novels include The Secret Life of Algernon Pendleton and The Bric-a-Brac Man.
Jonathan Lethem is the author of six novels, including Motherless Brooklyn, which won the National Book Critics Circle Award, and The Fortress of Solitude.
