ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“The Given Day” by Dennis Lehane is a historical novel set in post-World War I Boston, exploring the turbulent political and social landscape of the time. It follows the lives of Danny Coughlin, a Boston police officer caught in a strike, and Luther Laurence, a Black man escaping the Tulsa Race Riots. As they navigate issues of labor unrest, racial tensions, and personal conflict, the novel delves into themes of class struggle, identity, and justice. The story examines how historical events shape individuals and their relationships, set against the backdrop of a city grappling with its fractured social fabric.
