Recent release "Making a Gangsta: Forgive Me, Father, for I Have Sinned" from Page Publishing author Larry Johnson is a riveting narrative introducing Slow L, the name by which he was known and formed on the streets of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where violence, crime, and death follow even the innocent. Slow L must learn to navigate an uncertain world after the brutal murder of his parents to survive the constant threat of rival gangs that pervade every facet of life in the inner city.
GREEN BAY, Wis., Feb. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Larry Johnson, a Milwaukee native recently released by the Wisconsin Department of Corrections after serving twenty-five-year sentence, has completed his new book "Making a Gangsta: Forgive Me, Father, for I Have Sinned": a gripping and potent work that keeps the pages turning until its stunning conclusion.
Slow L was marked by death at a young age when his stepfather is murdered and mother shot down in front of him. Eight years passed and still trying to outdistance this tragedy, haunted by it every step of the way. Lack of trust made him jump off the porch a little sooner than most kids. Once he learned the Milwaukee streets had real people that acted in the form of animals and orangutans among the living, he knew then he needed to adapt to the Mil-jungle, or get peeled, or eaten alive. Nobody was to be trusted—not a priest, not the police, not his childhood friends, or closest relatives. They made him a gangsta with no explanation as to why.
Published by Page Publishing, Larry Johnson's engrossing book is an excellent choice for avid urban fiction readers.
