[Following is a volunteer review of "Unconscionable" by Charles R. Butts Jr..]
In October 1983, the discovery of Johny Lee, a young black African American boy, dead and decapitated shocked many. His death was unnatural, but people could guess the obvious reasons as the killers triumphantly announced their conduct, but no one dared to take any significant action against them. Will Johny Lee ever get justice? Will the perpetrators ever face accountability for their immoral crime? Join the Griers family on this incredibly emotional journey to find out what happened in the end.
Charles R. Butts, Jr.’s “Unconscionable” is a riveting and thought-provoking read from beginning to end. I admire the author’s efforts in publishing such a unique book that provides an outline of racial prejudice on American soil during the twentieth century. This is a work of fiction based on a true occurrence. The author attempted to focus on every facet of this intriguing, mysterious, nerve-racking, terror-filled story.
I felt an emotional connection to the Griers family. From beginning to conclusion, I felt like I was on an emotional roller coaster. I’ve sobbed countless times while reading this book. I couldn’t stop myself from reading it in one sitting. It’s imaginable how awful the condition was for black people back then. The unfairness that was happening to them on many fronts saddened me. I also loved how the author presented the story. He has attempted to focus on the event and the accountability for committing the crime.
I also enjoyed how the Griers family never lost faith in God and his means of taking retribution. They believed him throughout the procedure. This made me quite pleased. After reading those motions, my faith in Him and His decisions grew stronger than ever. For the reasons stated above, I am giving this book a rating of five out of five stars. I couldn’t think of anything negative to say about this book. This book contains some obscene language and remarks. I believe that this book is better suited to individuals of all faiths because it is natural for us to remember the almighty when we are afraid or doubtful. The Griers family solely did that.
I would recommend this book to adults who have experienced racial discrimination in their life. Teenagers should avoid this book because it contains vulgar language and many unsettling descriptions that could cause nightmares.
