{"product_id":"the-tempest-tales-walter-mosley-9781574780437","title":"The Tempest Tales","description":"Tempest Landry, an everyman African American, is \"accidentally\" killed by a cop. Denied access to heaven because of what he considers a few minor transgressions, Tempest refuses to go to hell. Stymied, Saint Peter sends him back to Harlem, where a guiding angel tries to convince him to accept Saint Peter's judgment, and even the Devil himself tries to win over Tempest's soul. Through the street-smart Landry, Mosley poses the provocative question: Is sin for blacks the same as it is for whites? And who gets to decide?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Walter Mosley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1574780433\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781574780437\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Classic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/07\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.74h x 5.85w x 0.74d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/17\/2008 pg. 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2008 pg. 77\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEssence\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2008 pg. 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2008 pg. 387\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2008 pg. 5","brand":"Walter Mosley","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43996342157567,"sku":"9781574780437","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c431392f-cea4-4089-bd73-a509318a523e.jpg?v=1683341137","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-tempest-tales-walter-mosley-9781574780437","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
