IZZO / MARSEILLE

“Whether one becomes a policeman or a gangster is pure biographical coincidence.” So it is said in Jean-Claude Izzo's Marseille trilogy. The books are much more than just crime stories, they are socially realistic portraits of this incredibly complex city.

Izzo doesn't think in black and white, but gets as close to his characters as he does to the places they inhabit. I love him for that, and that's why I always have this sentence in mind when working on characters.
