The Skinny Event: David Simon August 29, 2009

THIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT

Are America's inner cities unpoliceable? This was the question first posed by David Simon - creator of HBO's universally acclaimed TV series The Wire - eighteen years ago in his award-winning Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets. Now re-issued, the gripping, gut-churning account of his twelve month stint on the streets with the Baltimore police is factual storytelling to rival Mailer and Capote.
