We are not only on the edge of the continent, we are to this country what New York was in Ellis Island's heyday, what the West Coast was in the middle of the 20th century. This is where the new arrivals debark these days, and it is no mistake that during the last decade of the last century, commentators as diverse as Joan Didion, David Rieff, and T.D. Allman devoted entire volumes to Miami's role as the harbinger for America's future . . . But for now, the novel of crime and punishment is the perfect vehicle to convey the spirit and the timbre of this brawling place to a wider world.</em> </p> 1004441 1 11 2006 Miami Noir (Akashic Noir) total:9|5:2|4:3|3:4| 9 34 19 1 3 0 false false Wed Jun 25 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 18 12:59:46 -0700 2008 Wed Jun 25 05:43:35 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sun Nov 22 11:09:58 -0800 2009 Sun Nov 22 11:09:58 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Oct 26 05:26:38 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 26 05:39:58 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Aug 01 13:04:12 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 01 13:04:12 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Jul 29 17:00:23 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 29 17:00:23 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Thu Jul 09 22:31:11 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 09 22:31:11 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Jun 30 15:09:06 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 30 15:09:06 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat May 23 15:42:06 -0700 2009 Sat May 23 15:42:11 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sun May 24 10:12:11 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 08 07:46:24 -0700 2009 Sun May 24 10:12:11 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Mar 23 09:57:02 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 23 09:57:02 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Oct 20 12:55:49 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 20 12:55:50 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Jul 29 08:24:15 -0700 2008 Fri Feb 13 17:32:05 -0800 2009 3 0 false false Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 26 08:47:42 -0700 2008 Thu Jun 26 08:48:04 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Thu Feb 21 12:15:53 -0800 2008 Thu Feb 21 12:15:53 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sun Nov 25 19:23:02 -0800 2007 Sun Nov 25 19:23:02 -0800 2007 0 0 false false Sat Nov 03 08:25:52 -0700 2007 Sat Nov 03 08:25:52 -0700 2007 4 0 false false Thu Nov 01 06:56:29 -0700 2007 Thu Nov 01 06:56:29 -0700 2007 4 0 false false Fri Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Fri Sep 21 12:39:04 -0700 2007 Fri Sep 21 12:39:11 -0700 2007 3 0 false false Thu Jul 12 13:24:25 -0700 2007 Thu Jul 12 13:24:25 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1018317
