Description: Two black crack dealers, one white cop, and a gritty New Jersey neighborhood: in the hands of Richard Price, these grim ingredients make for a classic tale of murder, confession, and the remarkable bonds that can form across barriers of race and class. Clockers is "a closely observed tour de force", hailed the New York Daily News, "an odyssey of cops, drugs, survival and power". It is also a probing study of the remarkably similar interior lives of two men, one a burned-out cop, the other the hard-working brother of a "clocker", or neighborhood crack dealer -- all propelled by a stunning narrative and a gripping plot.
