With "Nineteen Eighty Three "David Peace completes his Yorkshire
Ripper Quartet, an astonishing noir epic. Three intertwining
storylines see the Quartet's central themes of corruption and the
perversion of justice come to a head: BJ, the rent boy from
Nineteen Seventy Four, the lawyer Big John Pigott, and Maurice
Jobson, the senior cop whose career of corruption and brutality has
set all this in motion, find themselves on a collision course that
can only end in a terrible vengeance. "Nineteen Eighty Three"is a
fitting conclusion for one of the finest series in contemporary
British crime writing.
David Peace grew up in Yorkshire, England, in the 1970s and
vividly remembers listening on the radio to the hoax tape of the
Yorkshire Ripper. He now lives in Tokyo.
