Query: A Rare, difficult read, but a rewarding one!

Anyone who saw the film 'La Haine' and wants to get under the skin of the real French suburbs without the glorified Hip-Hop aesthetics and sensational dramatization should read Maspero's excellent ride through the stark no mans land so often left off of tourist guides.Where the books succeeds is in the honest, informed observations of the writer and the subtle, down to earth photos of Anaik Frantz.It's not a pretty read, but then it's not supposed to be and amongst the ugly outlands lies the promise of a thousand untold stories that form the reality of life in the French capital.
