THE NEW YORK TIMES: Review: Another Day in the Death of America

Description

In 2013, between the wee hours of Nov. 23 and the wee hours of Nov. 24, 10 American children and teenagers were killed by guns.Those 24 hours, extraordinary in two senses — extra ordinary and beyond ordinary, banal in the context of our national normal but outrageous by any civilized measure — are now the subject of a book by Gary Younge: “Another Day in the Death of America: A Chronicle of Ten Short Lives.” It is exactingly argued, fluidly written and extremely upsetting. This is your country on guns.
