Across the river from El Paso, in the cribs and cantinas of Ciudad Juárez, a cast of working women, pimps and drifting customers fight, drink, scheme and occasionally love one another. The author insists in his foreword that his characters were real people he watched for months in amazement, and the dialogue is rough, profane and often violent.
A raw, privately published curiosity from the Prohibition-era border, of interest to readers of pulp and social history rather than polished fiction. Download the free EPUB.
