Brooklyn Crime Novel

"Part crime novel, part literary mosaic that follows a plethora of lives in Brooklyn through time, and a love letter to the borough, Brooklyn Crime Novel sees Jonathan Lethem in the same spectacular form he showed in novels like Motherless Brooklyn and The Fortress of Solitude. Fast, funny, gritty and full of nostalgia, this mosaic novel is wildly entertaining while also delivering a history of Brooklyn and its residents that doesn’t shy away from tackling difficult topics like injustice, racism and gentrification."
