Hear Ryan Gattis discuss  his new book ALL INVOLVED, a gritty and cinematic work of fiction that vividly re-creates Los Angeles after the 1992 verdict to acquit LA police officers accused of beating Rodney King. In the novel Gattis tells 17 interconnected first-person narratives --  gang members, firefighters, graffiti kids, and nurses caught up in extraordinary circumstances that paint a portrait of modern America itself—laying bare our history, our prejudices, and our complexities. All Involved is a literary tour de force that catapults Ryan Gattis into the ranks of such legendary talents as Dennis Lehane and Richard Price.
