Walter Mosley

    12. január 1952

    Walter Mosley je známy predovšetkým svojou bestsellerovou detektívnou sériou s Easy Rawlinsom v hlavnej úlohe, ale jeho rozsiahle dielo zahŕňa aj literárnu fikciu, science fiction a politické eseje. Jeho štýl sa vyznačuje prenikavým pohľadom na spoločenské a rasové otázky, často zasadeným do živého prostredia. Mosley majstrovsky skúma témy identity, spravodlivosti a morálnej ambivalencie prostredníctvom pútavých príbehov. Jeho jedinečný hlas a hlboké porozumenie ľudskej povahy rezonujú naprieč žánrami a oslovujú široké spektrum čitateľov.

Young Brawly Brown has traded in his family for The Clan of the First Men, a group rejecting white leadership and laws.

His first day on the case, Easy comes face-to-face with a corpse, and vefore he knows it he is a murder suspect and in the middle of a police raid.
