Jonathan K (Max Outlier)’s Reviews > The Right Mistake: The Further Philosophical Investigations of Socrates Fortlow > Status Update

Literary fiction wearing a costume of race that's inspired by an ex felon.. Truly brilliant in all respects

It's always a delight to stumble across a book you'd overlooked and discover one of the best stories you've read in ages. While there's not a single mention of God, the inspiration is deep and evocative

A work of art.. Inspired, engaging and what you expect from the mind of Mr Mosley.. Socrates is one of the most unique characters I've encountered

I've read Walter Mosley for years and this is one of his best. It's not everyday we meet a character like Socrates who manages to inspire with a take no prisoners persona.. Terrific!

Very powerful message delivered by the theme of the story.. Mosley has shown that Socrates Fortlow a classic contradiction in terms contradiction in terms. A former murderer who did his time, clings to guilt while inspiring change with the Thinkers Meeting group.

Wonderful. A combination of grit and inspiration from an ex felon and murderer.. Unique to say the least

First Socrates Fortlow story I've read and looks like another great character. Gritty, take no prisoner type but human nonetheless
