Back to Blood (audiobook)

“A soapy, gripping, and sometimes glib novel.”
—New York Times

“Wolfe, Master of the New Journalism Universe, has done his homework and done it well.”
—Miami Herald

“Wolfe creates his own Miami sound machine—noisy, chaotic, infused with tropical rhythms, and fueled by the American dream.”
—Publishers Weekly

“This is a shrewd, riling, and exciting tale of a volatile, divisive, sun-seared city where ‘everybody hates everybody.’” 
—Booklist

“Back to Blood is a return to form, a work that solidifies Wolfe’s stature as one of the best. Using his incisive journalistic skills, his flair for the cinematic moment, and his laugh-out-loud sense of humor, Wolfe takes the disparate types in and around Miami to create a tapestry of memorable scenes and characters. The result is entertaining, revealing, and perhaps even bigger than the sum of its parts. This is a book that will do for Miami what Wolfe’s mega-hit The Bonfire of the Vanities did for New York.”
—Amazon.com, editorial review

“[Wolfe] has not lost his gift for panoramic presentation; Back to Bloodsurges with its large ensemble cast of Floridians and immigrants with mixed histories and conflicting agendas. This sun-bronzed band of sailors, crack dealers, art enthusiasts, porn addicts, insomniacs, and love-struck romantics keep the fiction bristling with meaning even as the action moves forward.”
—Barnes & Noble, editorial review

“Wolfe returns to fine form with this zingy, mile-a-minute novel of life in the weird confines of Miami…a welcome pleasure from an old master and the best from his pen in a long while.” 
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
