Download Murder City: Ciudad Juarez and The Global Economy's New Killing Fields AudioBook Free
Ciudad Juárez is placed just over the Rio Grande from El Paso, Tx. A once-thriving border town, it now resembles a failed condition. Infamously known as the place where women fade away, its murder rate surpasses that of Baghdad or Mogadishu.InMurder City, Charles Bowden has written a fantastic account of what goes on when a city disintegrates. Interweaving tales of its inhabitants--a raped beauty queen, a repentant strike man, a journalist fleeing for his life--with a broader meditation on the town's descent into anarchy, Bowden uncovers how Juárez's culture of assault can not only worsen but undoubtedly disperse north.
