Preview The Coldest Winter Ever
Praise for Sister Souljah and The Coldest Winter Ever “Souljah, an Emile Zola of the hip-hop generation, has written a naturalist novel of a world without redemption. Her story, like the cultures it exposes, is an unflinching eye at the truth.” —Walter Mosley “Souljah adds a new voice to the most marginalized of the marginalized.” —Black Issues Book Review “[C]ompelling … tugs at the emotions.” —Chicago Sun-Times “I think she is an important voice in American literature, and I find her work spiritually rewarding and powerful.” —Jada Pinkett Smith “[E]ngaging … a fast, fun read.” —The Plain Dealer “This is a wild tale … a vivid portrait of a girl you’d rather have as a friend than an enemy.” —Seventeen “Real and raw…. If a rap song could be a novel, it might resemble [this] book.” —Booklist “This is a ghetto fairy tale with a surprise ending…. There’s a lesson to be learned from The Coldest Winter Ever.” —The Tennessean “[A] tour de force.” —Kirkus Reviews THE COLDEST WINTER EVER Washington Square Press 1230 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10020 www.SimonandSchuster.com This book is a work of fiction.
