内容提要:	"David Simon's American City examines the television serials created by influential showrunner David Simon, arguing that Simon's main theme is the state of the contemporary American city and that all of his serials (barring one about the Iraq War) explore different facets of the metropolis. Each series offers distinctly different visions of the American city, but taken together they represent a sustained and intricate exploration of urban problems in modern America. From deindustrialization in The Wire and residential segregation in Show Me a Hero, to post-Katrina New Orleans in Treme and the transformation of the urban core in The Deuce, the book traces the urban through-line in Simon's body of work"--Back cover
