A photographer descends into NY City's chaotic and brutal underground in this sweeping history of the Big Apple at its seediest. It's 1982, and Clarence Dmitri Larkin is working as a photographer at Bellevue hospital in Manhattan. The work offers a painfully clear perspective over a city sick and tired with madness, fraught with criminal offense, and coming apart at the seams. Larkin's curiosity soon causes a subterranean world of all the city's secret hazards, including domestic terrorists with a nuclear device, a serial killer inspired by an occult history, and a disfigured arsonist who just might be the main one to burn the whole city down. Ready for the finish of the World is a gritty portrait of 1980s NY, and an engrossing look at the challenge of good versus evil in a city racked with violence and paranoia.
