“Do not. Confuse me. With. The facts. I tell the truth.” ―Jimmy Breslin

The first-ever biography of America’s greatest crime reporter

In a newspaper career spanning decades, Jimmy Breslin covered the stories that he knew mattered most: the human stories beyond the front page. From the JFK assassination, to the Son of Sam killings, mafia heists, the Crown Heights riots, and the Occupy movement, Breslin’s influential columns captured the lifebeat of the second half of the 20th century. A quintessential New Yorker, Breslin rubbed shoulders with world leaders and neighborhood arsonists, profiled JFK’s gravedigger, and elicited letters from the Son of Sam killer during his reign of terror, all recounted in columns that were personal, blunt, and the truth―at least Jimmy’s version of it.

Jimmy Breslin: The Man Who Told the Truth is the first biography of the legendary writer, vividly portrayed by Richard Esposito, a former colleague of the Big Man. From Breslin’s humble beginnings as a copy boy, to winning the 1986 Pulitzer Prize for Commentary, the writer’s life was as fascinating as any of his subjects. With the full cooperation of Breslin’s family and interviews with countless of his former coworkers, friends, and enemies, Esposito has crafted a meticulous and revealing portrait of a complex man who bared his soul to the world in column inches.

“不要混淆我。与我说的事实相比，我讲的是真相。” ―吉米·布林斯 美国最伟大的犯罪记者的第一本传记 在长达数十年的新闻生涯中，吉米·布林斯报道了他深知最重要的故事：那些超越首页的故事。从肯尼迪遇刺案到“儿子桑德”连环杀手事件，黑帮盗窃案，皇冠高地骚乱和占领运动，布林斯的影响性专栏记录了20世纪末半段的生活节奏。作为典型的纽约人，布林斯与世界领导人及街区纵火犯擦肩而过，报道了肯尼迪的“墓地掘墓者”，并在他肆虐期间从谋杀狂人的信件中获得灵感，这一切都被记在专栏里，这些专栏是个人化的、直接的，至少是我所理解的真相。 吉米·布林斯：说出真相的人 这是理查德·埃索波塔对传奇作家生动描绘的第一本传记。埃索波塔曾是大人物的老同事。从布林斯卑微的起点——一个打杂男孩，到在1986年赢得普利策评论奖，这位作家的生活就像他研究的主题一样引人入胜。经过布林斯家庭的全力合作和与无数前同事、朋友及敌人进行的广泛访谈，埃索波塔精心描绘了一位复杂人物的肖像，此人曾以专栏字数为世界袒露心声。
