Informationen zum Autor Bernard Lefkowitz ! an Edgar award-winning author! has written three earlier books on social issues! including Tough Change: Growing Up on Your Own in America (1987). He teaches journalism at Columbia University. Klappentext A  New York Times  Notable Book of the Year A  Los Angeles Times  Prize Finalist An Edgar Award Finalist "In this gripping book, Lefkowitz takes one single event—the brutal sexual assault on a slightly retarded young woman by several high profile high school athletes in suburban New Jersey—and brings his readers face to face with the smug arrogance of predatory male sexual entitlement. And he does it not with a sweeping analysis but with a novelist's eye for precise detail, a tightly wound tale, elegantly told."—Michael Kimmel, author of Manhood in America "Lefkowitz provides a graphic, faithful account of an amazing case—amazing because of the community's reaction to 'our guys' and the suspiciously drawn-out trial. Its true-crime approach could make Our Guys a bestseller."—Peggy Sanday, author of A Woman Scored: Acquaintance Rape on Trial Zusammenfassung It was a crime that captured national attention. In the idyllic suburb of Glen Ridge, New Jersey, four of the town's most popular high school athletes were accused of raping a retarded young woman while nine of their teammates watched. This book takes the reader behind Glen Ridge's manicured facade.
