Building on the momentum created by the publication of Charles Bock’s debut novel Beautiful Children, a novel Newsweek recently called “the book of the moment,” the Random House Publishing Group is offering a free PDF download until midnight today, February 29. The free download, which can be shared, emailed or printed, will be available on beautifulchildren.net/read.

In a unique collaboration, Random House has also invited both chain and independent online retailers to participate. Thus far, Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble.com, Bordersstores.com; Booksamillion.com, Powells.com and Northshire.com have agreed to make the file available to their customers.

An immediate New York Times bestseller now on bestseller lists across the country, Beautiful Children is a fearless, masterful panorama of Las Vegas, and the web of lonely children and adults hiding from their past and searching for salvation as they weave their way through the neon underworld.
