Abstract
|
:
|
Trick Baby tells the story of "White Folks," a blue-eyed, light-haired, con-artist whose pale skin allows him to pass in the streets as a white man. Folks is tormented early in life, rejected by other children and branded a "Trick Baby," the child conceived between a hooker and her trick. Refusing to abandon his hood dreams and a chance at revenge, Folks is taken under the wing of an older mentor, Blue. His journey to the top of the con game is not to be believed.--Back cover.
