Synopsis

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a non-fiction work by John Berendt. The book, Berendt's first, was published in 1994. It became a New York Times Best-Seller for 216 weeks following its debut and remains the longest-standing New York Times Best-Seller. The book was subsequently made into a 1997 movie of the same title, directed by Clint Eastwood, featuring Kevin Spacey and John Cusack, and based loosely on Berendt's story. It was also adapted as a metabook in 2015. Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is atmospherically Deep South coastal (Savannah, Georgia, Beaufort, South Carolina) and Southern Gothic in tone, depicting a wide range of eccentric personalities in and around the city of Savannah, Georgia. The story, unsettling and real, broke down the idea of the quintessential phenomenon of a true American city-only to reveal its quirks: its man walking an invisible dog; its voice of the drag queen; a high-society man in its elite community-all that somehow, unravels a murder mystery. Virtually seeming like a novel and reading like a tale, the non-fictional story is about the real-life events surrounding the murder. (source: Wikipedia)
