Justin Glawe Book Talk

Through the ravages of endless police killings, to the border and its desperate migrants, and through the stories of corrupt politicians and dirty cops, readers of If I Am Coming to Your Town, Something Terrible Has Happened will see through writing what most people never see: the seams of an entire country tearing apart in front of them.
