desertcart.co.jp: Death Wish : ICEBERG SLIM: Foreign Language Books Review: After reading Pimp we had to get more by Slim. Wish this had a glossary as well. The lingo is a little hard to follow and it jumps around, but a good read. Had to send it to an inmate friend. It’s a jailhouse hit. Review: It was a present. Feedback is if you got a ghetto girlfriend that likes to read she will love this book.

After reading Pimp we had to get more by Slim. Wish this had a glossary as well. The lingo is a little hard to follow and it jumps around, but a good read. Had to send it to an inmate friend. It’s a jailhouse hit.

I purchased this book in an attempt to rebuild my libarary from 70's era copies of works I once owned. Perfunctory examination reveals that this edition appears consistent with the original with very little deviation in the text.

Good but not as good as "Pimp" or "Mama Black Widow" (I've read "Trick Baby" over 20 years ago, unlike the two books I mentioned, so I'll have to read it again and I've never read "Dynamite Willie & Me"). If you're a fan of Iceberg Slim its worth reading just don't expect "Death Wish" to be as good as those two or for black underworld characters to be the focus of the story...the focus is on Italian Gangsters. Ice is best when he writes about a world he knows well.

It will shock delicate sensibilities but Slim sure knows how to tell a story. It's as if he was a fly on the wall witnessing events. I enjoyed it.
