Possibly the most depressing book of 2008, or ever. Both SPM and sit_walk are right. Murder City is a series of stapled together articles, whose doom-laden, Hunter S. Thompson-influenced style is, for once, justified. No need to look as far as globalization for blame; look at what greases the economic wheels in Vancouver, BC. As a cop at Main and Hastings once said, "it's all about containment."
