The Butcher Boy: Signed Limited Slipcased Artist Edition #/1000

Suntup Editions. 2022, First Edition/First Printing. Hardcover. Ill.: David Lupton. Book, A square solid tight clean unopened unused copy still in original publisher's shrinkwrap. A powerful and unrelenting journey into a young boy's heart of darkness, The Butcher Boy by Patrick McCabe is startlingly original and impossible to put out of your mind. Set in a small town in Ireland in the early 1960s, The Butcher Boy is the story of Frances "Francie" Brady, also known as "pig boy," the only child of an alcoholic father and a mother driven mad by despair. As his troubled home life collapses, Francie retreats into a violent fantasy world. Held up for scorn and ridicule by the sanctimonious neighbor Mrs. Nugent, and dropped by his best friend Joe in favor of Mrs. Nugent's son, Francie finally finds a target for his rage, and a focus for his twisted, horrific plan. Dark, haunting, and often screamingly funny, The Butcher Boy chronicles the pig boy's ominous loss of innocence and chilling descent into madness. Written in a hybrid of first-person narrative and stream of consciousness, critics marveled at Patrick McCabe's unique use of rhythm and language upon the novel's publication in 1992. Critic Tim Guathier claimed McCabe's style of writing forces the reader to "constantly reassess Francie Brady's psychological stability," making the novel all the more terrifying. The New York Times hailed The Butcher Boy as "stunning. part Huck Finn, part Holden Caulfield, part Hannibal Lecter." The Butcher Boy won the 1992 Irish Times Irish Literature Prize for Fiction, and was shortlisted for the 1992 Booker Prize. In 1997, it was adapted by the author and Neil Jordan into an award-winning film. 6" x 9" trim size. 248 Pages. Limited to 1000 copies. Full cloth, smyth-sewn binding. Two-hits foil stamping.
