Chicago
A big shouldered, big trouble thriller set in mobbed up 1920s Chicago -- a city where some people knew too much, and where everyone should have known better -- by the Oscar-nominated screenwriter of THE UNTOUCHABLES and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright of GLENGARRY GLEN ROSS.

About the Author:
David Mamet is an acclaimed playwright, screenwriter, film director, and essayist whose many works include the Academy Award-nominated film Wag the Dog and the Pulitzer Prize-winning play Glengarry Glen Ross.
Review:
The story moves at a careening pace... Of a piece with character studies such as E.L. Doctorow's Ragtime and John Sayles' Eight Men Out, Mamet's book does Chicago -- and organized crime -- proud. An evocative, impressive return that Mamet fans will welcome. --(Kirkus Reviews (starred review))
