Money, Greed, Death, and Fatherhood in Chicago During the 2008 Recession in L.C. Fiore’s “Coyote Loop”

October 12, 2021

In this episode 252, we visit with L. C. Fiore, author of “Coyote Loop,” a novel of a father, John Ganzi, his estranged teenage daughter, and the great recession of 2008.

When his daughter, Jeanie, unexpectedly moves in with him, he takes this as an opportunity to one-up his absent father and become a real dad. They make an unusual pair, but when tragedy strikes, they must work together to resolve their differences, or risk losing everything.

Emily Gray Tedrowe, author of The Talented Miss Farwell, had this to say about the book, “As gritty and shrewd as Chicago itself, Coyote Loop brilliantly probes the underbelly of our city's famed trading pit in the nadir of 2008, where brutality and grace collide in John Ganzi: South Sider, struggling dad, and a character I won't soon forget."
