Publisher Description
The world is crowded. Far too crowded. Its starving billions live on lentils, soya beans, and - if they're lucky - the odd starving rat.
In a New York City groaning under the burden of 35 million inhabitants, detective Andy Rusch is engaged in a desperate and lonely hunt for a killer everyone has forgotten. For even in a world such as this, a policeman can find himself utterly alone....
Acclaimed on its original publication in 1966, Make Room! Make Room! was adapted into the 1973 movie Soylent Green, starring Charlton Heston along with Edward G. Robinson in his last role.
Customer Reviews
Harry Harrison at his best
This really is Harrison at his best, showing the huge range to his abilities and his ability to produce more thoughtful and intellecutal work. Its a bleak story but the main character Andy never loses hope which prevents it from becoming depressing and theirs some really interesting and thought provoking aspects to this tale which makes it compelling listening. The narration by Eric Summerer is excellent and he does a great job of bringing the book to life. I'd definately recommend it.
