Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. First Printing thus [Stated]. xiii, [1], 432, [2] pages. Sara Paretsky (born June 8, 1947) is an American author of detective fiction, best known for her novels focused on the protagonist V. I. Warshawski. Paretsky was born in Ames, Iowa. Her relationship with her parents was strained; her mother was an alcoholic and her father was a harsh disciplinarian. After obtaining a bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Kansas, she did community service work on the south side of Chicago in 1966 and returned in 1968 to work there. She completed her AM degree at the University of Chicago in 1969 and completed a Ph.D. in history there in 1977; her dissertation was titled "The Breakdown of Moral Philosophy in New England Before the Civil War". She also earned an MBA in 1977 from the University of Chicago School of Business. Her husband, Courtenay Wright, was a professor of physics at the University of Chicago; the two were together from 1970 until his 2018 death. The protagonist of all but two of Paretsky's novels is the female private investigator V. I. Warshawski, and the author is credited with transforming the role and image of women in the crime novel. She is also considered the founding mother of Sisters in Crime, an organization that supports and promotes women in the mystery field. Tunnel Vision marks the eighth appearance of V.I. Warshawski, who's been called "the most engaging woman in detective fiction since Dorothy Sayers's Harriet Vane" (Newsweek), "the detective mystery fans have been waiting for" (Time), and "a gumshoe for modern times" (People). Stubborn V. I. Warshawski is up to her private eyeballs in trouble with the local thugs and white-collar criminals of south Chicago in three works. Victoria Iphigenia "Vic" "V. I." Warshawski is a fictional private investigator from Chicago who is the protagonist featured in a series of detective novels and short stories written by Chicago author Sara Paretsky. With the exception of "The Pietro Andromache", Warshawski's adventures are written in the first person. Victoria Iphigenia Warshawski, called "Vic" by her friends, is the daughter of Italian-born Gabriella Sestrieri, who was half-Jewish and fled the Mussolini regime in 1941. Trained as an opera singer, she was destitute when she arrived as a refugee immigrant. She met and married Anton "Tony" Warshawski, a Polish American police officer in Chicago. Gabriella spoke Italian and heavily accented English with her daughter, who became fluent in Italian. On the other hand, the American-born Tony spoke only English with her. After earning a law degree and working a short stint as a public defender, she became a private detective specializing in white-collar crime. In most novels, Vic is drawn into murder cases connected to white-collar crime. She often ends up pursuing cases that affect her friends, estranged family, or those who she feels are being bullied by the wealthier and more powerful of Chicago. She repeatedly uncovers and confronts major combinations of crooked business people and corrupt politicians, much more powerful than she, and emerges with at least a partial victory. Vic is described as a lean, athletic brunette who runs to keep in shape and does not fear physical confrontations, relying on karate or her Smith & Wesson semi-automatic pistol with its nine-round magazine.
