Title: Another City, Not My Own: A Novel in the form of a Memoir Author: Dominick Dunne type of book: Fiction call number: FIC/Dun

This book is strong in story.

Summary:
Mr. Dunne has written a somewhat biographical novel based on his past encounters and primarily on the O.J. Simpson trial. In this particular book, though, the main character dies; and even then the killer is someone well known to us. All the people and situations, other than the main character, family names, and situations affecting them, are actual.

I might recommend this book.

Why?
If you are very interested in the O.J. Simpson trial, you would probably like to read this book. I listened to the audio book version and it is read by the author. Mr. Dunne is known for his writing, but he cannot read aloud. It was difficult to know which character was speaking and I was relieved when the book came to an end.

Additional comments:
If you are interested in the topic or are just a fan of Dominick Dunne, I would recommend the print book and not the audio.
