Informationen zum Autor Ryan Gattis is a novelist, lecturer at Chapman University in Southern California, and member of LA urban art crew UGLAR. Vorwort ' All Involved is a symphonic, pitch-perfect, superlative novel. It swallowed me whole.' David Mitchell, author of Cloud Atlas Zusammenfassung The 1992 Los Angeles Riots: six days of looting, arson, assault and murder. America's second largest city in chaos. In All Involved , Ryan Gattis weaves a heart-stopping narrative from the perspectives of characters whose stories of the riots were never told. In six sections, each covering a single day, we follow the intersecting lives of seventeen people: gang members, firefighters, nurses, law enforcement officers and graffiti artists, every one changed for ever. Though the events of All Involved are fictional, every word is infused with authenticity and intimacy. A propulsive and ambitious novel as electrifying as the television series The Wire , this is a mesmerizing epic of crime and opportunity, race, revenge and loyalty.
