Reviews
"One of De'Shawn Charles Winslow's greatest gifts is his world-building mastery. West Mills and the people who reside in it feel so real, recognizable, tangible, vibrant, and vivid. His rendering of this southern landscape is extraordinary. And this skill serves Decent People very well. It's been a very long time since I've read a good, old-fashioned whodunnit, and this is a most outstanding one, accomplishing several feats at once: it's a compelling mystery with brilliant misdirections and surprising revelations, all while having depth of purpose and critical, crucial social commentary. Decent People is quite the achievement." -- Robert Jones Jr., author of the National Book Award Finalist and New York Times bestseller, THE PROPHETS "The town is full of secrets, and the novel rollicks through revelations of true parentage and hidden lives." -- The New Yorker on IN WEST MILLS "From the first page, Winslow establishes an uncanny authority and profound tone that belie the book's debut status. The precision and charm of his language lure us in and soothe us . . . Much of the story is told through dialogue, rich and truthful conversations among characters reminiscent of those in August Wilson's plays, expressing so much more than what is on the surface." -- The New York Times Book Review on IN WEST MILLS "A bighearted novel about family, migration, and the unbearable difficulties of love. Here's a cast of characters you won't soon forget." -- Ayana Mathis, author of The Twelve Tribes of Hattie on IN WEST MILLS "Winslow's impressive debut novel introduces readers to both a flawed, fascinating character in fiction and a wonderful new voice in literature." -- Real Simple, Best Books of 2019 on IN WEST MILLS "Winslow's quietly glorious novel is dedicated "To the reader," and it engages on a level that's appropriately intimate." -- Boston Globe on IN WEST MILLS, "De'Shawn Charles Winslow's powerful second novel Decent People is a gripping mystery but also something more. A thoughtful examination of small-town life becomes a story about America itself, looking directly at the legacies of racism and segregation, homophobia and secrecy, poverty and power." -- Rumaan Alam, author of Leave the World Behind "One of De'Shawn Charles Winslow's greatest gifts is his world-building mastery.

Much of the story is told through dialogue, rich and truthful conversations among characters reminiscent of those in August Wilson's plays, expressing so much more than what is on the surface." -- The New York Times Book Review on IN WEST MILLS "De'Shawn Charles Winslow is in possession of a voice, one that's not only pitch-perfect but also arresting and important and new. It's a voice that's by turns funny and heartbreaking and beautiful." -- Rebecca Makkai, author of The Great Believers on In West Mills "De'Shawn Charles Winslow has a rare and blessed gift for writing characters who live and breathe and struggle and love one another and attain, in their imperfect, human way, a miraculous grace." -- Garth Greenwell, author of Cleanness on IN WEST MILLS "A bighearted novel about family, migration, and the unbearable difficulties of love. Here's a cast of characters you won't soon forget." -- Ayana Mathis, author of The Twelve Tribes of Hattie on IN WEST MILLS "Wonderfully accomplished." -- O, The Oprah Magazine on IN WEST MILLS "Winslow's impressive debut novel introduces readers to both a flawed, fascinating character in fiction and a wonderful new voice in literature." -- Real Simple, Best Books of 2019 on IN WEST MILLS "Winslow's quietly glorious novel is dedicated "To the reader," and it engages on a level that's appropriately intimate." -- Boston Globe on IN WEST MILLS, "Anyone who adored Charmaine Wilkerson''s Black Cake and Dolen Perkins-Valdez''s Take My Hand , take note. De''Shawn Charles Winslow invites readers on a satisfying ride that, through his keen observations of human nature, leads to deeper considerations of the glacial progress of racial equality." -- BookPage, starred review "Winslow chronicles the aftermath of a triple homicide that rocks a segregated Southern community in his dynamic latest . . . There are a trove of surprises along the way to the well-earned resolution, and Winslow entrances readers with strong characters, impeccable prose, and brisk pacing. As a character-driven mystery, it delivers the goods." -- Publishers Weekly "This tale comes across as considerably more than a regional whodunit because of its author''s humane and sensitive perceptions toward his characters, even those who may not deserve such equanimity." -- Kirkus Reviews "One of De''Shawn Charles Winslow''s greatest gifts is his world-building mastery.
