A review by zellm
The Awkward Black Man by Walter Mosley

5.0

Wow. Mosley's range is evident here, in stories that range from speculative fiction to historical to coming of age and beyond. They are all so well told, with such relatable and well-rounded characters. I loved just about every story in this book, and walked away from some of them saying out loud "holy crap, that was fantastic". Mosley is an extremely talented author, and these stories were such great snapshots of the lives of unique and diverse black men.
