[Deutsch] describes a complex problem rooted in a lack of hope and
opportunity that many participants see as insoluble. This is a
crucial and enthralling work on gangs and the communities they
inhabit.
*Publishers Weekly, Starred Review*
The Triangle offers a gripping account of [Deutsch's year with the
gangs], a particularly violent one because of an all-out war
between the gangs for territory in which to deal drugs. . . .[H]is
account seems grounded in fact and his research thorough. The
result is a compelling story of a facet of American life that
doesn't seem likely to change anytime soon.
*The Columbus Dispatch*
It is obvious from the level of detail in The Triangle that Deutsch
was deeply invested in this story and deeply involved with it's
participants.
