The wacky adventures of 4 dudes with funny ways of talking
I looooooooved the first 3/4 of this book and then got kind of lost at the end. Overall though, really sweet, especially reading it a year post-college.
For anyone interested in New York, prostitution, and sexual politics in the late 1800's, this book provides an extremely readable account of one woman's gruesome murder, and the related birth of tabloid culture.
An excellent first novel from Lehane. A great look into the violence and skewed race relations of working-class Boston, all while pushing the action at a breakneck pace.
Only Atwood I've read but really enjoyed it. Writing is excellent with smart plot structures and branches of stories that all challenge you to stick to it and come out sighing for more. (thanks hh, finally, i read it)
