Doom Fox is the final instalment in Iceberg Slim's searing sequence
of highly-charged books that began with his critically acclaimed
and multi-million selling autobiography, Pimp. Slim's powerful, raw
prose and eye-opening reflections of black ghetto realities have
helped to redefine modern American literature, offering the reader
a glimpse into lifestyles and language never before seen in print.
Doom Fox tells the tragic story of three generations of the Allen
family in post-war L. A. Written with Slim's typically disturbing
honesty and sharp humour, it paints their lives with compassion,
telling their stories in their own words, in the language of the
street. The result is another riveting and potent urban parable, a
bitter coomentary on a society that has as its core a legalized
policy of discrimination.
