Gary Philips will be joining us to discuss the 30th anniversary re-issue of his first mystery novel Violent Spring. The story is set in the aftermath of the ’92 civil unrest. As Sarah Weinman wrote recently in the Alta Journal magazine, “…a book that felt like a punch to crime fiction’s solar plexus, so indisputably contemporary was it in its juxtaposition of the private-detective genre and social justice in the wake of the Rodney King riots two years prior.”
