Dennis Lehane at Powell’s Cedar Hills Crossing


Thanks to Kelly, we rambled out to Cedar Hills Crossing to see Mr. Lehane, author of the Kenzie/Gennaro P.I. murder mysteries, Mystic River, Shutter Island, The Given Day and its two sequels.  I took several photos of Mr. Lehane, none of them great.  He’s a good storyteller, he is and while reading from the first chapter of his new book, you can see how he drew these people in.

I learned that he misses Boston terribly, (he lives in Santa Monica), he’s a Boston Celebrity (Lahane, you’re a treas-ah!), the Wire was only renewed for five seasons because HBO didn’t have anything else, and no, he still hasn’t found his dog.  I hope Portland showed him an okay St. Patrick’s Day.

Coming home the Rose Garden was lit up for the holiday.

  1. I refuse to accept that the Rose Garden is no longer called the Rose Garden. 🙁

    I’ve never read any of Lehane’s books, although I did see the film adaptation of Shutter Island. I see that he and I are neighbors! Perhaps I’ll see him one day. (Totally not. I’m sure he lives on the rich side of town. I don’t.)
