Reads like a literary classic. Rare that I find a book I like so much in which I also dislike the main characters, but the writing here is just that good. Magee weaves together a variety of viewpoints into a compelling snapshot of a time and a place. Absolutely fantastic reading in the audiobook.
Graphic: Violence
Moderate: Murder
