Cotton Comes to Harlem

Chester Himes

‘He belongs with those great demented realists … whose writing pitilessly exposes the ridiculousness of the human condition’ Will Self

A preacher called Deke O'Malley’s been selling false hope- the promise of a glorious new life in Africa for just $1,000 a family. But when thieves with machine guns steal the proceeds - and send one man to the morgue - the con is up. Now Grave Digger Jones and Coffin Ed mean to bring the good people of Harlem back their $87,000, however many corpses they have to climb over to get it.

Cotton Comes to Harlem is a non-stop ride, with violence, sex, double-crosses, and the two baddest detectives ever to wear a badge in Harlem.
