At first I was going to skip this novel, but you made it sound like it's actually my kind of book. A thriller with some historical impact sounds ideal. I'm glad there's also some light-hearted moments as it could get quite deep. Thank you, I'm adding it to my want to read list.

This is a cultural heritage fiction book set in New Orleans in the 1950s and 60s. I found it interesting that Noel Corbin was a lawyer working for the Cajun mob while fighting pro bono cases amidst the prejudiced injustice of the legal system. Great book review!

I'm excited to read this book as I'm sure I'm going to learn a lot in general. I can't wait to see if Noel's attorney will get it right to prove his innocence. Racism is such a hateful thing and it's just sad to realise, we still haven't evolve enough to see past color. Thanks for a great review.

'Cajun Crow and the Mockingbird,' by Jimmie Martinez, is a compelling investigation of Cajun ancestry and racial dynamics. Noel, a fascinating and intellectual individual, piques our interest with his challenges. The novel's capacity to rekindle Cajun interest is impressive, as is its ability to shed light on the complexities of racism and the legal system during a time of segregation. It offers an eye-opening view into history, making it an intriguing read for cultural, heritage, and history buffs. Martinez's work is a compelling reminder of the need of remembering and learning from our past, making it a must-read for anybody seeking a deeper understanding of these subjects.

The fineness of the review is reckoning. An amazing legal thriller for the readers to deep dive into the world of Cajun sociology, the conflict simmering inside to reposition to the new present, and the tryst to overcome the two, is a great blend in historical recirculation.

At first glance, I really have no idea what the story is about. But your review really helped me to understand this book better. I am glad that the author explained Caljun's history, society, and background. I think it will be a comforting and heartwarming type of book.

Jimmie Martinez seems to be a very talented writer of legal thriller on social justice with historical undertone. I am curious about this line in the cover page review: "Representing his first innocent client, the morally dented attorney learns powerful lessons about redemption, morality, love, and God." You throw light on this in your well written review. It seems to be an interesting and intriguing plot about culture, tradition, and social justice. I like to read this sometime.
Congratulations Jimmie Martinez on the BOTD!

Our society needs writers who are not afraid to present the truth to readers about issues such as human rights, racism, and injustice.
I didn't know about the Cajun people before and I appreciate these books for introducing me to these issues.

I don't know much about the Cajun culture, but I'm aware that Louisiana is where most of the Acadian descendants from France settled in Louisiana in the late 1700s. I'm always open to learning about the history and culture of the Acadians. Congrats to the author for having the BOTD.

Starting with a brief introduction of the history of Cajun people, *Cajun Crow and the Mockingbird* by Jimmie Martinez, is a brief look at the area, culture and life of people around New Orleans. There are depictions of racism and injustice in this story. Although much of the story is about poverty and unfairness there is lightheartedness, family, bravery, inspiration and love also.
