If you're like me, you vaguely remember the 1995 Denzel Washington movie, but your interest was piqued by mentions of the Rawlins character on the Netflix Luke Cage series. This is definitely a different type of detective novel, and Easy Rawlins is a unique take on the "private eye" character: an amateur, unlicensed, African-American, and avoiding the police. Author Moseley excels at dialogue and immersing the reader within the scene, and making even the unfamiliar (to me) worlds of black clubs and 1940s L.A. seem familiar. He creates intriguing characters; my personal favorite is Mouse, a short (and short-tempered) gangster and Easy's backup, the John Clark/Hawk/Chas to Easy's Jack Ryan/Spenser/John Constantine. Moseley also eschews the cliched "The dame walked in on two legs that spelled one word: trouble"-style prose, and instead focuses on Easy's keen observations, and the contrasts between his actions and thoughts (especially when it comes to Easy's interactions with white racists). So why only three stars? The plot was a bit of a mess. As in most detective stories, seemingly random and unrelated events occur, and a cast of characters is introduced, while the detective remains as in the dark as the reader and finally ties everything together in an explanatory scene at the end. The disparate elements of the mystery here never gel together quite properly (especially the explanations of who murdered who). All in all, though, it's a good read, and made me want to read the rest of the series. Suffice to say that, based on the way Daphne Monet (the title devil) is described and characterized, I'd be rushing to her rescue despite all common sense too.
I didn't want to put the book down. I came here from the movie; of course you can tell that from previous reviews of Easy Rawlins. And you always think that the book will be better than the movie. And it was and wasn't. Guess both were great. Initially, I thought I was reading the movie and then subtle differences presented themselves.  Easy meets Albright at Joppy’s bar. True. He's hired to find Daphne Monet. No difference there. Coretta James. Frank Green? That's where the subtle differences start. Frank Green’s name keeps coming up. I know why but the book weaves it much better. More detail. And then the Mouse shows up and you can tell that Easy loves the guy but really wants no parts of him. He's that friend you love but hate to have around. Gets you into trouble. The kind of trouble that's burdensome but entertaining. So it got to a point that I couldn't put the book down. Even though I essentially knew what was going to happen from the movie. The book just took it deeper.I loved the wit. The voice in Easy's head that he argues with is hilarious. Mouse answering the phone (you'll see) is hilarious. And then there are the themes that become the making of a great franchise. Easy is a black man in 50s LA, dealing with racism, sexism, oppression and depression. And he wants to lead a normal life. But how can you? How can any of us and attempt to rise above it all?On to book 2.
I had not read anything by Mr Mosley before Devil in a Blue Dress with the exception of a few pages in a paperback I picked up briefly on a visit to a doctors office. I immediately became a fan however when I saw him interviewed for three hours on C-Span, a show called In Depth that can be seen on YouTube by the way. His answers to questions and further statements about his work and life in general and writing were so straight forward, sensible and logical that I was drawn to his work whether I agreed with his opinions or not. I am white, although I am familiar with the terrain Mr Moseley covers as I grew up in the fifties in Brooklyn in the Bedford Stuyvesant section and went to school with and had many friends and acquaintances who were black. I worked in several stores there as well that had black clientele. Devil in a Blue Dress is a great read because the characters are well drawn, the scenes are believable and of course Easy is a true hero, a good man and a long suffering man who has been through the wringer and is being put through one in the book. Easy is also likable, sensible, moral, suffering and noble. He's also righteous and a bad dude when he has to be or is driven to be. I say its a terrible book because Mr Moseley has shown us quite graphically, the depths of degradation that humans are capable of, through Mouse and Daphne and Allbright and Terran as well as the cops. Depths that perhaps the black man and woman have been driven to in some way by whites although as is shown you don't have to be black to do evil deeds. I put down the book a couple of times because these degrading scenes are terrible to behold however true of life they may be. Someone said in another review that the plot was faulty, perhaps a bit unclear. I disagree, Moseley's characters in this work, and the predicaments they find themselves in, are bigger than the plot, transcend plot in a way because they are more important than plot. In Devil in a Blue Dress Moseley's LA is as weighty as Chinatown in the Jack Nicholson film or The Naked City in the TV show of that name: indeed we hear that there are 8 million stories in The Naked City as there are undoubtedly in Moseley's LA. There are hundreds, thousands of plots in these places and all of them spell random death and and perverse behavior. I don't give five stars to anything on principal, not many can be Dante or Shakespeare or Dostoevsky, but Devil in a Blue Dress to me is a solid four.
