Posted on by

Book Cover

A floating monster that resembles outer space is the visual metaphor for the protagonist’s nebulous but crushing feeling of gender dysphoria. Nisha, who is brown-skinned, is not sure exactly what is going on, but she knows she hates being called a boy. In a heartbreakingly authentic moment, she laments that the monster only listens to other people, not her own pleas for it to go away.

Book Cover

The movie climaxed in 1995, with Pacino’s intense L.A. cop, Vincent Hanna, shooting and killing De Niro’s fatalistic bank thief Neil McCauley, his nemesis and alter ego. In the “before” sections of the novel, set in 1988, Hanna pursues a sadistic home-invading gang of killers and rapists while McCauley plans the heist of millions in cartel money from a truck bound for Mexico. Following McCauley’s death and a massive shootout, his wounded right-hand man, Chris Shiherlis (the Val Kilmer character), … Read the rest

Posted on by

A professional killer is targeting drug-dealing thugs mostly using the same knife-related M.O.

Then things get more complicated, as they receive word that a Southeast Asian heroin group is setting up shop in Chicago.
