A review by jackamo
Deacon King Kong by James McBride

5.0

Brilliant, authentic dialogue w well realized characters who drive this novel tremendously // a novel w the power to reveal truths deeper than those found in simple fact or nonfictions — more concerned with experiential, relatable truths // reminded me of Barry Gifford and to an extent A Confederacy or Dunces w/ Sportcoat playing into that Ignatius J Reilly kind of hilarity // absolutely loved it and thrilled to go back and read McBride’s other books
