ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Deacon King Kong” by James McBride is a vibrant, character-driven novel set in 1969 Brooklyn. The story centers around Sportcoat, an elderly, eccentric man who unexpectedly shoots a young drug dealer named Deems Clemens. As the community grapples with the aftermath, the novel explores themes of faith, redemption, and the complexities of human relationships. The characters, from neighborhood residents to criminals, navigate their struggles with humor, loss, and the search for meaning. McBride uses a blend of humor and tragedy to reveal the resilience of individuals and the interconnectedness of a diverse, tight-knit community.
