About this book
The 1967 memoir that changed American street literature forever. Robert Beck — Iceberg Slim — recounts twenty-five years pimping in Chicago, Milwaukee, and Detroit in his own ice-cold voice.
Critics call it the foundational text of Black urban memoir — cited as an influence by everyone from Dave Chappelle to Jay-Z to Irvine Welsh.
