Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A raw and fascinating novel based on the authors experiences as a New York City paramedic during the crack epidemicBurke is a poet of trauma (Publishers Weekly, starred review).Black Flies is the story of paramedic Ollie Cross and his first year on the job in mid-90s Harlem. It is a grounds eye view of life on the streets: the shootouts, the bad cops, the hopeless patients, the dark humor in bizarre circumstances, and one medics struggle to maintain his desire to help despite his growing callousness. It is the story of lives that hang in the balance, and of a single job with a misdiagnosed newborn that sends Cross and his partner into a life-changing struggle between good and evil. Although Black Flies is a novel, it contains more reflections of lived experience than some memoirs. . . . Reading this arresting, confrontational book is like reading Dispatches, Michael Herrs indelible account of his years as a reporter in Vietnam. The New York Times Book Review Novelist Shannon Burke earned stunning reviews for his debut book, "Safelight," and now he returns with the same minimalist intensity in this arresting follow-up. "Black Flies" is the story of paramedic Ollie Cross and his first year on the job in mid-'90s New York. It is a ground's eye view of life on the streets: the shoot-outs, the bad cops, unhinged medics, the hopeless patients, the dark humor in bizarre circumstances, and one medic's struggle to balance his desire to help against his own growing callousness. It is the story of lives that hang in the balance, and of a single job with a misdiagnosed newborn that sends Cross and his partner into a life-changing struggle between good and evil.
