Possibly the best written short fiction of this era.,
By
This review is from: The Monkey Suit, and Other Short Fiction on African Americans and Justice (Hardcover)
Troutt has accomplished his stated goal in grand style. He has given life to people who always get lost in the intricacies of the legal system. He has given them culture, voice and heart. In the process has done an extraordinary job of conveying the complexities of African American cultures. His writing verges on poetry.

Wonderfully written, timely, thought-provoking,

This review is from: The Monkey Suit, and Other Short Fiction on African Americans and Justice (Hardcover)
Just a first-rate collection of fiction, the right measure of subtlety, sharp, insightful. Readers who liked this book will love Swiss Movement by Vaughn A. Carney, which is alternately hilarious and tragic.

Compelling, powerful and unique,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Monkey Suit, and Other Short Fiction on African Americans and Justice (Hardcover)
David Dante Troutt presents a brilliant collection of short fiction involving African-Americans and the law. The points of view are unique and compelling, and Mr. Troutt's prose is lyrical and accomplished. A stunning achievement, not to be missed.
