"If you can take A LOT of racist slurs...this is an interesting take on American History in the 1960s (JFK, RFK, MLK Jr) - just be prepared for some very stylistic writing, with a lot of the "n" word and graphic violence. I enjoyed this book despite my anti-rape feelings."
"Weird, wild, crazy...are you kidding me? Never read anything like this before. Not sure I can/should recommend it to too many. It's a gut-check. But I loved it. Short, violent sentences. Staccato rhythms,clipped, stylized, hard-nosed and repetitive. Entire story (and way of telling it) is like getting kicked in the groin and then bitch-slapped while ordering a very dry vodka martini."
