Mpr News With Kerri Miller

Novelist Don Winslow has written hundreds of pages about America's war on drugs. He's taken readers into the labyrinth of Mexican cartels, revealed the cynical calculations made in the highest echelons of governments and laid bare the violence and the damage that flow from America's greed for drugs. This Friday, MPR Hews host Kerri Miller will talk to Winslow about his new book, “City on Fire,” which is the first in what promises to be an epic saga about the Irish and Italian crime syndicates in America. To whet your appetite, here’s Miller’s last conversation with Winslow from 2019, when they discussed “The Border,” the final chapter in his trilogy about the war on drugs. Guest: Don Winslow is a best-selling author of 21 books and countless articles and short stories. His new novel, coming April 2022, is “City on Fire.” To listen to the full conversation you can use the audio player above.  Subscribe to the MPR News with Kerri Miller podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts or RSS.
