may i humbly suggest: private investigator novels
we need more american art dedicated to characters who are at the heart good people but circumstances and life have hammered into something more cynical, and who nonetheless try to do good but also struggle to balance that with simply surviving. great thematic stuff happening here and in cowboy bebop

Posting this here cos it's from the only tweet I ever bookmarked, and I'd like to be able to find it quickly now that's gone. Also because, as a writer, it kind of knocks me out.

I’ve got a real soft spot for the random graffiti folk of Brooklyn. They have a little world of their own when we’re not looking, I think.
