ABOUT THIS BOOK

USER REVIEWS

A disaster
~ Written on Jan 20, 2008. 1 out of 3 users found this review helpful.

Bell's attempt to spin a tired concept into an interesting novel fails spectacularly. The "Chronicles" are difficult to read at best, thanks to unnatural dialogue and the constantly preaching Crenshaw. I would not recommend this to anyone.

An Excellent Book
~ Written on Jul 25, 2001. 3 out of 12 users found this review helpful.

This novel is a must read for everyone. Bell presented a funny yet sadly true concept of reality from the past to the present.

Excellent historical perspective and overall analysis
~ Written on Mar 28, 1999. 24 out of 29 users found this review helpful.

This book provides a chilling account of traditional race relations in the United States, and also forces the reader to confront the problems with many of the proposed modern solutions. I recommend this book to anyone who has ever grappled with the issue of race in this country--even if one does not agree with all of Bell's analysis, the level of thought provoking questions and challenges are outstanding!
