Ed Lewis writes an America that transcends war, peace and the strange combined turbulence of racism, poverty and madness that makes up America in the 21st century. With deft strokes he gives us characters that haunt us like black and white photos: Jet-setters, troubled teenagers, Vietnam Vets, migrant workers, and ordinary people. His stories are inhabited by the Americans of Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States. One wonders how a Hollywood producer dipped his fingers in the unearthly fissuring fabric of the American everyman.

It’s a brilliant and beautifully written moving saga of the violation of human rights this past century, yet it’s told in a powerfully intimate and personal way, with all the meanness and all the joys we all feel so many times. I was very disappointed when the book was over. I wanted it to go on indefinitely!—Arthur Hiller, twice president of The Motion Picutre Acadamey


Heads You Lose will grab you in the first chapter and hold you prisoner until the last. Edward and Mildred Lewis have written a riveting book.—Kirk Douglas
