1969 · Los Angeles
by Iceberg Slim
Los Angeles: Holloway House, 1969. Very good.. Second edition of this influential account of Slim's underworld memoir. Frequently cited as an important influence on gangsta rap, Slim's work (he would go on to a long writing career, publishing a string of novels in a similar vein) — and this, his best-known book, in particular — effected realms far beyond hip-hop: from novelists Walter Mosley and Donald Goines to the comedians Richard Pryor and Dave Chappelle. 7'' x 4.25''. Original color pictorial wrappers. 320 pages. Some creasing. Mild rubbing, soil. Overall, sound.
