Frasi di Jeff Lindsay

Jeff Lindsay, pseudonimo di Jeffry P. Freundlich , è uno scrittore statunitense di crime story.

Vive in Florida con sua moglie, la scrittrice Hilary Hemingway, figlia di Leicester Hemingway e nipote di Ernest. Lindsay è conosciuto soprattutto come autore della serie di romanzi incentrati sulla figura di Dexter Morgan. Molti dei suoi primi lavori sono stati scritti insieme a sua moglie. Time Blender è stato scritto con Michael Dorn.

Il primo romanzo della serie su Dexter Morgan, La mano sinistra di Dio, è stato nominato per il Mystery Writers of America's Edgar Award nella sezione Migliore Opera Prima. Tuttavia, la nomination è stata ritirata quando si è scoperto che Lindsay aveva pubblicato negli anni novanta molti romanzi con lo pseudonimo Jeffrey P. Lindsay; lo stesso libro ha comunque ricevuto nel 2005 il Premio Dilys.

Dal primo romanzo con Dexter Morgan protagonista, La mano sinistra di Dio, è stata tratta una serie televisiva, Dexter, prodotta e trasmessa dal canale statunitense Showtime. Wikipedia

da Dexter, l'oscuro

“Quando si vive in una torre glaciale fatta di logica si cerca sempre una base solida per le proprie azioni. Si tende ad ignorare lo stridore irrazionale e irragionevole delle voci musicali che ti spronano dal fondo del cervello, per quanto si facciano insistenti sotto la luce della luna.”

Jeff Lindsay

da La mano sinistra di Dio, p. 281

“Da vicino potevo dire che, in effetti, non ero io. Non proprio. Gli fui grato di questa rivelazione. Urrà, è qualcun altro. Non sono ancora completamente pazzo. Seriamente antisociale, certo, e sporadicamente un po' omicida. Ma non pazzo. C'era un altro e non ero io. Lunga vita al mio cervello.”

Jeff Lindsay

da La mano sinistra di Dio, cap. 26
