Title: even better than "Clockers" -poignant & gripping
Review: In "Freedomland" Richard Price's talent for hyper-realist drama has superseded the limits of the urban cops & robbers genre. I think the setting and characters he prefers put him in a category where his writing is doomed to be overlooked. How else can you explain bad reviews of such an elegantly written book? The characters are painfully real although drawn in an economy of gestures rather than by heavy-handed narration. His ear for dialogue is as always, dead accurate, never a false note whether it's a white suburban cop or an elderly African-American preacher. My only complaint was that the plot was so compelling that it was hard to read slowly enough to enjoy the writing.
