   Is Robert Jones Jr a good book?

   • Robert Jones Jr. did a magnificent job bringing all those characters to life, showing the inhumanity of our history. Reading this book, I could see the images so vividly in my head, and shivers ran time and again down my back, and I cringed and had goosebumps a lot. Although it may seem like a rather painful story, it’s also full of hope and love.

   Why did Robert Jones write the Prophets?

   • “The Prophets” by Robert Jones Jr is a lyrical love story of two gay boys during antebellum time in Mississippi. Jones wanted to write a story about gay slaves because none have been written. What was breathtaking to me was his lyrical prose while writing of the evils and horrifying conditions of slavery.
