The powerful sequel to GANGSTA has finally arrived!
If you are not into African American Literature and the hood then this book is not for you.
GUTTER is a gripping shocking tale of best friends Kenyatta, aka Dollar, and Louis, aka Baby Loc, discussing what Dollar has done to ruffle feathers. Dollar decides that the only way to make sense about what is going on is to investigate thing fro mthe very the beginning.
Lou-Loc is dead and as a result , Gutter is laying everything red down! Sharell is pregnant and so afraid that her man won't live very long, and poor Satin is grieving while being held prisoner by her own madness.
K'wan is truly at his best.. Admittedly, I felt strange each time I turned the page, being a middle aged White women and all.. But like a soldier caught in the mist, I welcomed each challenge of trying to interpret the language and street talk that I was completely oblivious too. . I can earnestly say that GUTTER has awakened my thirst for the grittiness and heartache associated with the hood. It is a story his fans have been waiting for. While this dosage was enough to hold me off, it is higly entertaining. GUTTER is truly an engaging urban tragedy; that shines light on what it is to truly be a product of your environment. It is a gripping bolt action mayhem. Gutter is indeed an action packed novel. "keepin' it real" " holla 'bout how I'm jus' hatin' is gon' catch a *bad* one, f'real yo "...we'll see what pops.
