*by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on 22 March 2018*

Beatty's language and humor cut like a knife.  At once tender and funny as hell.

    un roman de qualité
  
  

*by N***T on Reviewed in France on 12 February 2018*

Un roman de qualité qui déjoue beaucoup d'idées reçues. Je pense qu'il est  indispensable de se laisser aller pour le découvrir.  Bonne lecture.

    A main character that is remarkable in a novel that is equally so
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on 16 June 2018*

Winston "Tuffy" Foshay is running for city council because, well, because he needs to. He may not know it, but running for public office is standing between him and all sorts of trouble in his Spanish Harlem neighborhood. A big man, he's also much more than just his "tuff" persona. He's as memorable a character as I've come across in American fiction, and he's a bit like a Huck Finn for Harlem."Tuff," by Paul Beatty, is, like all of Beatty's other novels, playful and serious at the same time. It's not concerned with being the "typical urban ghetto slice-of-life novel" (and indeed, it upsets the conventions of said genre, in ways that are often humorous but always truthful). Beatty is an author who upsets the conventions of whatever he's working in (the coming-of-age story, the mystery, the racial satire), and here is no different. Just when you think you have Winston pegged, he and Beatty surprise you. For such a short novel (only 259 pages), Beatty manages to play on so many tropes that your head will spin.I first came to know Paul Beatty's work through "The White Boy Shuffle," and his Booker Prize for "The Sellout" is richly deserved. "Tuff" isn't perfect, but it's entertaining and enlightening enough to be worth your time. Give Tuffy your vote, and you won't be disappointed.
