Críticas

"Hunter's writing is fluid and fast, and the dialogue is often raw and gritty yet comical."
--Black Issues Book Review

"DRAMATIC AND GRITTY . . . Travis Hunter raises the bar . . . with the racy Trouble Man. . . . Expansive in its exploration of male accountability, Trouble Man not only shows the consequences of irresponsible behavior, but also allows for redemption and empathy."
--Upscale magazine

"HIGHLY RECOMMENDED--AND Y'ALL KNOW I DON'T RECOMMEND MUCH!"
--ERIC JEROME DICKEY
Author of The Other Woman

"A VERY EMOTIONAL STORY about a man making choices about being a man for his self-esteem and for the respect of his family."
--Booklist

"Once again, Travis Hunter gives us unforgettable characters that move and touch us in a way very few authors have done. Trouble Man is full of surprises, and it shows that, with patience, love, and a willingness to look deep within our souls, we all have the capacity to grow and change for the better. This is fabulous work from a writer who has proven once again that he's here to stay."
