The movie of Dennis Lehane’s Shutter Island was abruptly moved to the spring 2010 schedule, seemingly leaving the tie-ins high and dry.
Maybe high, but not dry; the trade paperback edition appears at #24 on the extended 9/13 NY Times Trade Paperback list and the mass market appears at #20 on the Mass Market list.
Last year, the tie-in to The Road became a bestseller even though the movie was rescheduled to this this fall.
Maybe tie-ins don’t need no stinkin’ movies; the secret to their success may just be a matter of new jackets and front-of-bookstore displays.
