    WOW! This is the first book i have read by him. It's his second novel out of 10. Iceberg being an ex con/pimp/hustler turned writer details the exploits of "White Folks" a hustler in Chicago. He is one of the most vivd writers I have read in a long time and a phenomenonal story teller. It sucks you in and spits you out. I am off to the bookstore to get more.............

    I just posted about a movie and I used the phrase 'sucks you in and spits you out'!!! and I also read Trick Baby this summer - it was my favorite book I have read in a long time. I was really dissapointed by the long white con though. I did like Pimp. There is a blaxploitation flic done on Trick Baby but don't waste your time hunting it down - it is f**king horrible.
