DECENT PEOPLE by De'Shawn Charles Winslow published this week to a wealth of critical acclaim. The book received a fantastic review from the Los Angeles Times, where reviewer Chris Vognar raves: “[A] propulsive second novel, a murder mystery that doubles as a savvy examination of race and class...[Winslow] has crafted a nonstop narrative that picks at the scabs barely concealing the wounds of American race relations…DECENT PEOPLE practically turns its own pages, creating in the reader an insatiable curiosity that matches Jo’s own. Winslow proves able to simultaneously drill down and step back, letting the details add up and weaving the grievances of one character into the next until you don’t know whom to trust. They’re all caught in the same web, and try as they might, they can’t talk their way out of it. But it sure is fun to watch them try.” The book was featured on The New York Times' "Newly Published" Column, as well as must-read round-ups from The Southern Review, USA Today, The Millions, Lit Hub, Book Page, and Vol. 1 Brooklyn. Lastly, Winslow was interviewed by Writer’s Digest, KMUW’s Marginalia podcast, and NPR’s Scott Simon for Weekend Edition Saturday. Bloomsbury Publishing published the book on January 17, 2023.
