Описание: CHOSEN FOR: NPRS BEST BOOKS OF 2014--Smart, edgy and profane, a rollicking caper you constantly think youve got figured out until you dont. This book is fun. Loads of fun. Clever, well-paced plot and terrifically real characters... A sharp insiders look at the urban art scene, and an especially addictive narrative voice... Theres one thing more to point out while recommending the hell out of this book: The humanity of it. And that is so refreshing in a Gritty Urban Detective Yarn. (Wayne Alan Brenner, The Austin Chronicle)Thriller of the Month/July 2014--There are cops, a psychotically brilliant business plan, dead artists, living artists, mobsters, an upstart FBI agent, corrupt officials walking City Hall, and an art dealer with skin a curiously Dorian shade of Gray. Set in modern-day Chicago, Kleinfelds style is slick and playful. The comedy is black and funny, the pace fast. His writing is cinematically visual. He captures in print what the Coen brothers do so brilliantly with their heightened realities on screen. Think plot-driven Tarantino, or The Godfather with wit. (Sophie Scott, e-Thriller.Com) Let me tell you about Lenny Kleinfelds wild and witty Some Dead Genius. Kleinfelds fast-paced books are likely to appeal to fans of Elmore Leonard and Carl Hiaasen. This hardboiled black comedy involves a series of artists murders investigated by the pair of smart, cynical cops. Chicago locations are put to good use; at one point, the cops pursue the killers through the Art Institute in an extended cinematic scene that could have been choreographed by Quentin Tarantino, had he channeled the Marx Brothers. (Georgette Spelvin, Read Me Deadly.com)Some Dead Genius continues Lenny Kleinfelds romp through Chicagos dark side that began in Shooters and Chasers. Again Kleinfeld takes readers to the edge of believability-this time through the art world- but manages to deliver the one-two punch of dark humor and beautiful prose that only an exceptional crime novel set in Chicago can manage. And SDG is exceptional. I recommend it highly.-Libby Fischer Hellman, author of Havana Lost and Set The Night On FireWith his hardboiled black comedy Some Dead Genius, Lenny Kleinfeld has now written two of the funniest mysteries Ive ever read. But more than funny, both books are tight, fast-paced, well-crafted crime fiction.-Jeffrey Siger, author of the Chief Inspector Andreas Kaldis MysteriesKleinfeld is one of the most original and thrilling crime writers working. Some Dead Genius is a hilarious caper with more layers than a Jackson Pollock canvas. Its Damon Runyon meets de Kooning.-Jacki Lyden, NPR Host & Correspondent, and author of the international bestseller, Daughter Of The Queen Of Sheba

Описание: The most violent places in the world today are not at war. They are instead buckling under a maelstrom of gangs, organized crime, political conflict, corruption, and state brutality. Such devastating violence can feel hopeless, yet some places--from Colombia to the Republic of Georgia--have been able to recover.

Taking on existing literature and popular theories about war, crime, and foreign intervention, A Savage Order is a blistering yet inspiring investigation into what makes some countries peaceful and others war zones, and a blueprint for what we can do to help. Drawing on fifteen years of study and firsthand field research--interviewing generals, former guerrillas, activists, politicians, and law enforcement in countries around the world--Rachel Kleinfeld tells the stories of societies, including our own, that successfully fought seemingly ingrained violence and offers penetrating conclusions about what must be done to build governments that are able to protect the lives of their citizens.
