ALWAYS OUTNUMBERED, ALWAYS OUTGUNNED by Walter Mosley

January 4, 2008 by Daniel · 1 Comment 


“I either committed a crime or had a crime done to me every day I was in jail. Once you go to prison you belong there.” Socrates Fortlow has done his time: twenty-seven years for murder and rape, acts forged by his huge, rock-breaking hands. Now, he has to come home to a new kind of prison: two battered rooms in an abandoned building in Watts. Working for the Bounty supermarket, and moving perilously close to invisibility, it is Socrates who throws a lifeline to a drowning man: young Darryl, whose shaky path is already bloodstained and fearsome. In a path of violence and hopelessness, Socrates offers up his own battle-scarred wisdom that can turn the world around.
