\u201cNew York is a character in the book, and I hate it when people are like \u2018the city's almost a character\u2019\u201d\xa0

One of our favorites of 2023, Colson Whitehead\u2019s Crook Manifesto is a crime novel and so much more with unforgettable characters and a gritty portrait of New York in the 70s. Whitehead joined us to talk about his portrayal of the city he grew up in, creating a code of honor for criminals, important movie references and more with Miwa Messer, host of Poured Over.\xa0\xa0

This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\u202f\xa0
