Description: *The Choirboys* by Joseph Wambaugh is a darkly comedic and gritty novel that delves into the lives of a group of Los Angeles police officers who cope with the stresses of their brutal and chaotic jobs through a series of off-duty gatherings they refer to as "choir practices." These drunken, reckless escapades serve as a release valve for the officers' pent-up frustrations, but also expose the deep psychological toll that the violence and corruption of police work take on them. As the officers spiral deeper into dysfunction, the novel explores themes of camaraderie, trauma, and moral ambiguity, ultimately leading to tragic consequences.
