Publisher's Note

Here is the much-anticipated new work from one of America's literary icons--a gripping novel of suspense that explores the boundaries of the human heart.

Gabriel Noone is a teller of tales, a writer whose cult-hit radio serial "Noone at Night" brought him into the homes of millions, including an ailing 13-year-old boy named Pete Lomax. Meeting through extraordinary circumstances, Noone develops a remarkable friendship with Pete, a connection that evolves into a profound mystery that will blur the lines between truth and illusion, and lead Noone to confront all of his relationships--familial, romantic, and erotic--knowledge that will alter his perception of himself and his life forever.

The Night Listener is Armistead Maupin's most ambitious and daringly imaginative novel, a tale that will challenge and move his many fans as never before

 



Industry reviews
"Despite Maupin's trademark coziness and devotion to the sentimental, THE NIGHT LISTENER is a novel for an edgier era....Who knew one of the sweetest writers in America, known for his gentle comedies of manners, could also spin a solid page turner?...In the end, the reader is captivated and won't be able to get on with things until THE NIGHT LISTENER is wolfed down whole, like a midnight snack...."
Karbo 

"Armistead Maupin has gone postmodern, and somewhat maudlin....[T]here is...little of the humour and energy that make his TALES OF THE CITY volumes so readable. There is also a pitiable image of the writer as someone easily undone by the desertion of his muse....Its lack of a neat resolution is one of the best things about this novel; that, and the intentional blurring of fact and fiction are what redeems a tale otherwise mired in self-pity...."
Richardson 

"A touching but rather facile meditation on the way artists manipulate facts in their quest for truth....[S]trong storytelling, punchy humor, and a warmhearted narrator carry the day."
McLeese
