Beschreibung
New Orleans, 1918. The birth of jazz, the Spanish flu, an ax murderer on the loose. The lives of a traumatized cop, a conflicted Mafia matriarch, and a brilliant trumpeter converge and the Crescent City gets the rich, dark, sweeping novel it so deserves. King Zeno is a historical crime novel and a searching inquiry into man's dreams of immortality. A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice and a Paris Review Staff Pick.
