It was a wrong number that started it... From its iconic opening, The New York Trilogy famously blurred the lines between postmodern literature and noir fiction. In City of Glass, a writer of detective fiction is drawn into a real-life case far stranger than anything he has ever written. In Ghosts, a private eye is hired to stalk a man only to discover a case so puzzling he descends into madness. In The Locked Room, a different author hopes to cure his writer's block by solving the disappearance of his childhood friend.
With the second two books appearing here in graphic novel form for the very first time, these stories have been reimagined by three award-winning graphic novel masters. Channelling the cross-genre thrills of its source material, and its joyous mix of highbrow and lowbrow, the result is a stunning new visual take on a modern classic.
