With Liberty and Justice for Some

With Liberty and Justice for Some

2011 • 290 pages

Glenn Greenwald is SO good at writing narrative nonfiction, like, wow. There are a lot of threads here and it's so impressive how well he's able to knit them together into a cohesive portrait of Why Shit In America is Fucked Up. A lot of the material in this book is about things I've already read about (some of it, at least, from shorter articles by Greenwald)–Watergate, Guantanamo, The New Jim Crow, etc–but seeing all those problems and more tied together cohesively is stunning and terrifying.

Highly recommended.
