"Drive is full of sly humor, poetic details and plenty of rude violencea terrific ride." Los Angeles TimesAn Entertainment Weekly Top 10 Fiction Book of 2005A Washington Post Best Book of 2005Drive is the story of a man who works as a stunt driver by day and a getaway driver by night. He drives, that's alluntil he's double-crossed. Drive is a "masterfully convoluted neo-noir, which ranges from the dive bars and flyblown motels of Los Angeles to seedy strip malls dotting the Arizona desert. A stunt driver for movies, Driver finds more excitement as a wheelman during robberies, but when a heist goes sour, a contract is put on his head and his survival skills burn up the pavement." (Publishers Weekly) Powerful and stylistically brilliant, Drive has been hailed by critics as the "perfect piece of noir fiction" (New York Times Book Review) and an instant classic.
