This is a book club episode. In it, Travis and Amanda will discuss and analyze the first half of GHETTOSIDE by Jill Leovy. You should expect full “spoilers,” discussions of rhetorical elements, and celebrations / critiques of style and substance.
From the cover: “GHETTOSIDE is a fast-paced narrative of a devastating crime, an intimate portrait of detectives and a community bonded in tragedy, and a surprising new lens onto the greater subject of why murder happens in our cities - and how the epidemic of killings might yet be stopped.”
