FIC Hemon
The Lazarus Project is based on the true story of the killing of a Jewish immigrant by the chief of the Chicago Police Department in 1908. Hemon, a MacArthur Genius Grant winner, masterfully weaves the past with the present where serious contemporary issues are addrsesed with great wit and humor. This book is a well-deserved finalist for this year's National Book Award. This was an extremely satisfying reading experience.
