The legal thriller of the decade. --Cleveland Plain Dealer
Now a Major Motion Picture!
In this true story of an epic courtroom showdown, two of the nation's largest corporations stand accused of causing the deaths of children. Representing the bereaved parents, the unlikeliest of heroes emerges: a young, flamboyant Porsche-driving lawyer who hopes to win millions of dollars and ends up nearly losing everything, including his sanity. A searing, compelling tale of a legal system gone awry--one in which greed and power fight an unending struggle against justice-- A Civil Action is also the story of how one determined man can ultimately make a difference. With an unstoppable narrative power, it is an unforgettable reading experience.

評分寥寥幾筆就能立起人物形象,抽絲剝繭把一個復雜而很有可能無聊的故事慢慢展開,還講得極為生動有趣。整本書高潮迭起,讓人手不釋捲,實在非常精彩。
評分"The truth?" Facher said, smiling, one day after court. "The truth is at the bottom of a bottomless pit." Jonathan,Harr. A Civil Action. New York:Random House,1995. 340
評分漫長的訴訟
評分之前上課讀完the Buffalo disaster老師就推薦瞭這本,說不是每一個案子都伸張正義瞭,這個就輸的很慘,破産的主角還來我們學校演講過。。。。終於抽空讀瞭寫的真好。。。
