Book Reviews of A Rage in Harlem
Book Review: A Mess In Harlem (token)
Summary: 4 Stars
This story was Chester Himes intro to the 2 detectives "Coffin Ed" Jones (Count Off!) and "Grave Digger" Johnson (Straighten Up!). The plot was thought out carefully. Characters came alive, and each scene was fully picturesque. This wasn't only a rage in Harlem, but it was a mess of a crime with Johnson's dumb love for Imabelle. This story is going to keep you in awe, keep you laughing, but at the same time saying "What a Mess In Harlem".
