Zustand: FINE. First printing. A novel of Chicago by this hard-boiled crime writer, a native of Chicago himself - "During the hottest summer on record, the ruthless politics of hatred and fear are driving a giant metropolis to the edge of the abyss. . An ever-spiraling series of seemingly random and brutal events is about to hav…e a devastating effect on the lives of every Chicago citizen, the innocent and the culpable alike. What begins with the killing of a homeless crack addict escalates with the senseless drive-by murder of a blameless young woman - and explodes in a massive demonstration of destructive fury in one of the city's safest, most opulent sectors." Although the dust jacket does not even hint at it, this was published posthumously just months after Izzi's controversial death, one which was ruled a suicide but left many questions unanswered. 424 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.
