About this product

Product Information

Second in the renowned Marseilles trilogy following Total Chaos, "one of the masterpieces of modern noir" (Michael Dirda, The Washington Post ). This second novel in Izzo's acclaimed Marseilles trilogy is a touching tribute to the author's beloved city, in all its color and complexity. Fabio Montale is an unwitting hero in this city of melancholy beauty. Montale has left a police force marred by corruption, xenophobia, and greed. But getting out is not going to be so easy. When his cousin's son goes missing, Montale is dragged back onto the mean streets of a violent, crime-infested Marseilles. To discover the truth about the boy's disappearance, he infiltrates a dangerous underworld of mobsters, religious fanatics, crooked cops, and ordinary people driven to extremes by desperation. "Noir at its finest."-- The Times Literary Supplement "Izzo, who died in 2000, is more than adept at noir conventions--gritty light, sudden switches of scene, the pervasive rot of cynicism, which sullies even the best intentions. But what makes his work haunting is his extraordinary ability to convey the tastes and smells of Marseilles, and the way memory and obligation dog every step his hero takes."-- The New Yorke r "Like the best American practitioners in the genre, Izzo refrains from any sugarcoating of the city he depicts or the broken and imperfect men and women who people it."-- Publishers Weekly "This hard-hitting series captures all the world-weariness of the contemporary European crime novel, but Izzo mixes it with a hero who is as virile as he is burned out."-- Booklist

Reviews
Praise for Jean-Claude Izzo's Marseilles Trilogy "One of the masterpieces of modern noir."--Michael Dirda, Washington Post "Izzo's ability to describe Marseilles and to make his readers feel the multiracial reality of that city so directly and authentically is fascinating."--Andrea Camilleri, author of the bestselling Inspector Montalbano series "Izzo's Marseilles is ravishing. Every street, cafe and house has its own character."-- Globe and Mail "Like the best noir writers-and make no mistake, he is among the best - Izzo not only has a keen eye for detail . . . but also digs deep into what makes men weep."-- Time Out New York "Just as Raymond Chandler and James Ellroy made Los Angeles their very own, so Mr. Izzo has made Marseilles so much more than just another geographical setting."-- The Economist "The Marseilles trilogy may be the most lyrical hard-boiled writing yet."-- The Nation "Reading Izzo's novels, you're bound to cry sooner or later."-- Le Monde "Izzo provides another guided tour of the underbelly of Marseilles (so extensive that it seems to swallow the whole city) that's bracing in its wit and velocity." -- Kirkus (Starred review)

Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
