About this product

Product Information

This is the story of the Trial of the Century as only Dominick Dunne can write it. Told from the point of view of one of Dunne's most familiar fictional characters-Gus Bailey-Another City, Not My Own tells how Gus, the movers and shakers of Los Angeles, and the city itself are drawn into the vortex of the O.J. Simpson trial. We have met Gus Bailey in previous novels by Dominick Dunne. He is a writer and journalist, father of a murdered child, and chronicler of justice-served or denied-as it relates to the rich and famous. Now back in Los Angeles, a city that once adored him and later shunned him, Gus is caught up in what soon becomes a national obsession. Using real names and places, Dunne interweaves the story of the trial with the personal trials Gus endures as he faces his own mortality. By day, Gus is at the courthouse, the confidant of the Goldman and Simpson families, the lawyers, the journalists, the hangers-on, even the judge; at night he is the honored guest at the most dazzling gatherings in town as everyone-from Kirk Douglas to Heidi Fleiss, from Elizabeth Taylor to Nancy Reagan-delights in the latest news from the corridors of the courthouse. Another City, Not My Own does what no other book on this sensational case has been able to do because of Dominick Dunne's unique ability to probe the sensibilities of participants and observers. This book illuminates the meaning of guilt and innocence in America today. A vivid, revealing achievement, Another City, Not My Own is Dominick Dunne at his best.

"He is one of those writers who seems effortlessly to collide with copy. Movie stars confide to his answering machine. Wanted men hail the same taxi. Heiresses unload their life stories in elevators. Except, of course, Dunne's luck is not luck. People love to talk to him because he has a gift for intimacy that is real and generous." -Tina Brown, editor, The New Yorker "Dunne's antennae are always turned to the offbeat story... He is magazine journalism's ace social anthropologist whose area of study is the famous and infamous up close and personal." -San Francisco Chronicle "A sharp and unfooled observer of decor and mores." -Los Angeles Times "Dunne is a genius." -Newsday "He knows every story there is to tell, precisely how it happened, and why." -The New York Times Book Review From the Hardcover edition., "He is one of those writers who seems effortlessly to collide with copy.

Another City,Not My Own
This is an excellent book.Dominick you outdone yourself on this one.It took me until recently to decide to read this book,not because of the writer whom I consider the best in the business,but because of the subject.I just didn't think I could read it because of the terrible crime which it was based on.Now that I read it I'am so glad I did.Dominick thank you so much for writing this book.I HIGHLY recommend it to everyone who has been thinking the same way I did.Please take it from me you will be so glad you read it.It will change you,your way of thinking about so many things in life.I know it did for me.I can't explain what I just said,you just have to read this book and draw your own conclusions,make up your mind about how and what you think of the crime of this century.You will get angry,you will cry but most of all you will ask yourself why?why?why? I know there is no other book that tells it like it really was.Again I highly recommend this book because it is Dominick Dunne,a man who always tell it like it is,no matter what it is.Dominick you are the best most skilled writer.For anyone who did not follow the trial,and I didn't,for anyone who after all this time still have not made up your mind or just don't know what,when or who,please read this book and you will find out all you need to know to make up your mind or at least put it at peace,if that's possible.Read full review

Another City, Not My Own by Dominick Dunne
I love this book. There is so much information in this book, it's awesome. Dunne not only tells you about the Simpon's case, but all the people who have ever been in contact with Simpon, and what they thought and felt about the case. Thanks, Pam
