Description

In his highly acclaimed and best-selling novel The Dinosaur Club, William Heffernan turned the world of corporate greed and downsizing on its head in what USA Today called a page turner' and a 'funny and witty tale'. Now, Pulitzer Prize-nominee Heffernan takes readers behind the scenes at a major New York newspaper. Set against the backdrop of the '70s, when a bankrupt town danced its nights away to a disco beat and attack journalism was born, Cityside brings to life the eccentric, endearing and devious cast of characters that populate a big-city newsroom.'

Reviews

"Funny, sad, clever, original, heartwarming, timely, and terrific . . . A must-read."
-- NELSON DEMILLE
