Known as much for his journalistic reporting as for the fiction he wrote under a variety of pen names, Bill Granger combined his divergent talents in his powerful novel Time for Frankie Coolin. With distinctive voices, compelling characters, ontheground observation, and suspense, it offers a serious, illuminating take on the changing tides of race, class, and politics in late twentiethcentury Chicago.Time for Frankie Coolin tells the story of a plasterer turned landlord in Chicago who, in the late 1970s, buys abandoned buildings and makes them just habitable enough that he can charge minimal rent to his mostly black tenants. Frankieboth a tough guy in the trades and a family manhas done well by his wife and kids, moving them to a house in the suburbs. But a casual favor for his wifes cousinallowing the man to store some crates in an empty buildingand a random act of arson set in motion a cascade of crises, including a menacing pair of Gmen and the looming threat of prison if Frankie doesnt talk. But since talking has never been one of Frankies strengths, he copes as he always has: by trying to tough it out on his own.Calling to mind such gritty poets of the urban scene as George V. Higgins and Nelson Algren, Time for Frankie Coolin is both a psychological thriller and a 70s Chicago period piece that shines a surprisingly sympathetic light on the often ignored stories of the people who lived, worked, and died at the citys margins.
