Benjamin Black is the pen name of acclaimed author John Banville, whose novels have won numerous awards, most recently the Man Booker Prize in 2005 for The Sea. Black reads from his new mystery, The Silver Swan, his sequel to Christine Falls. In this haunting, masterfully written, and utterly mesmerizing story, Quirke, the irascible, formerly hard-drinking Dublin pathologist, returns in this spellbinding crime novel, in which a young woman’s dubious suicide sets off a new string of hazards and deceptions.
