"Since the 1970s, Lawrence Block has been writing award-winning novels and short fiction featuring Matthew Scudder. Now, with both himself and his detective half a century older, the author found himself charged with writing a book about his protagonist. And he decided he wasn't the right person for the job. LB: "What was Matt's family like? How did he spend his childhood? What steered him toward the NYPD, and how did he get all the way from the Police Academy to a detective's gold shield? Who were the influences and what were the experiences that made him the man we've come to know? These were important questions. There were certainly stories to be told, but that didn't mean I was the person to tell them. If Matt Scudder was to have a memoir, he ought to write it himself." So Block passed on the assignment to his most enduring fictional character, and the result-The Autobiography of Matthew Scudder-is a remarkable document, at once a convincing Bildungsroman and the indispensable capstone of an outstanding series."--Provided by publisher.
