Descriere magazin:
Raymond Carver meets Elmore Leonard in this extraordinary collection of contemporary crime writing set in the critically acclaimed Gangsterland universe, a series called gloriously original by The New York Times Book Review . With gimlet-eyed cool and razor-sharp wit, these spare, stylish stories from a master of modern crime fiction assemble a world of gangsters and con men, of do-gooders breaking bad and those caught in the crossfire. The uncle of an FBI agent spends his life as sheriff in different cities, living too close to the violent acts of men; a cocktail waitress moves through several desert towns trying to escape the unexplainable loss of an adopted daughter; a drug dealer with a penchant for karaoke meets a talkative lawyer and a silent clown in a Palm Springs bar. Witty, brutal, and fast-paced, these stories expand upon the saga of Chicago hitman-turned-Vegas-rabbi Sal Cupertine--first introduced in Gangsterland and continued in Gangster Nation --while revealing how the line between good and bad is often a mirage. About author(s): Tod Goldberg is the author of more than a dozen books, including Gangsterland , a finalist for the Hammett Prize; Gangster Nation ; The House of Secrets , coauthored with Brad Meltzer; and Living Dead Girl , a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. His writing has appeared in the Los Angeles Times , The Wall Street Journal , Los Angeles Review of Books , Las Vegas Weekly , and The Best American Essays , among other publications. He lives in Indio, California, where he directs the low-residency MFA in creative writing and writing for the performing arts at the University of California, Riverside.
