Comiski, a newspaper reporter, descends into an underworld of corrupt policemen, narcotics dealers and black militants in an attempt to unravel a mysterious grave-robbing and find some meaning in his own life. Powerful and compelling. (Originally published in hardcover by Houghton Mifflin) St. Louis Post-Dispatch: \"Grim, gripping, violent and practically impossible to put down.\" Publisher's Weekly: \"The scene is unglamorous New Orleans - decay, dirt, garbage... smell, every kind of filth, human and animal, in a brief, well-written novel of hopeless degradations that has a unique impact.\" Library Journal: \"A short- fast-paced and absorbing novel... that probes deeply into the texture of the contemporary South, and entertains from first page to last.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Conaway\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e James Conaway\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780989725507","brand":"James Conaway","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40542529814643,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":16.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_39535287-9114-4a82-a8b3-88cb716b3e19.jpg?v=1666878129","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/the-big-easy-9780989725507","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
