The Porkchoppers
In the mode of The Fools in Town Are on Our Side, Ross Thomas’s best-selling novel to date, The Porkchoppers takes an inside look at corruption — this time in an American labor union. The result is Thomas’s toughest and most entertaining book.
Donald Cubbin is president of a 990,000-member American labor union, and he faces a tough, dirty campaign for reelection against Sammy Hanks, the union’s secretary-treasurer. When both Cubbin and opponent pull out the stops to defeat each other, the action — including election-stealing and assassination-comes fast and nasty, with unexpected results, all served up in the incomparable Ross Thomas style.
