Socrates, from the beginning wraps your attention to the fast moving events of his life, never holding back his past as a two time murder and rapist while ingratiating you with his charm. The charm coming forth from his forthright nature and determination to make amends for the man he was...hard to put this book down!

Mosley presents us with multiple realities of life and society through the trials and tribulations of Socrates

With Moseley’s works the journey is the reward. I can’t remember the outcome of most of the EZ Rawlins mysteries but the characters and the eras he explored were fascinating. This was a very different kind of journey where much of the emphasis was put on just getting people to communicate and get them exposed to other viewpoints. And a different view of Socrates now looking to a brighter future.

Another fine Socrates novel

Living in South Central L.A., Socrates Fortlow is a sixty-year-old ex-convict, still strong enough to kill men with his bare hands. Now freed after serving twenty-seven years in prison, he is filled with profound guilt about his own crimes and disheartened by the chaos of the streets. Along with his gambler friend Billy Psalms, Socrates calls together local people of all races from their different social stations—lawyers, gangsters, preachers, Buddhists, businessmen—to conduct meetings of a Thinkers' Club, where all can discuss the unanswerable questions in life.


The Right Mistake is the 3rd of the Socrates Fortlow trilogy so I'm working backwards. I'll absolutely be reading the other two books.
The Right Mistake was super engaging and totally kept me hooked! It was thought-provoking, fun, and relevant. The narration was outstanding and made the story come alive. Mosely's characters are just awesome. Great read!

Walter Mosley is Brilliant!

This book is perfect in every way. The voice actor gave a superb performance. Only a person who has lived this could have written it. Honored to have heard this book performed on Audible.

Brazenly honest characters

While this is not his best work Walter Mosley delivers a great story to the life of the intriguing Socrates Fortlow. The Right Mistake is a good read that keeps you engaged throughout each chapter in the book.

Walter Mosley doesn't disappoint.

I listened to the first two books in the Socrates Trilogy and enjoyed them very much. This on bothered me at the start. The narration seemed overly dramatic and I felt like I was being “put on.” Then I realized that I was accustomed to a neutral narrator speaking in a neutral cadence with neutral emphasis, ie: white. The written text would be read this, but the narrator as well as the characters are using the phrasing and emphasis that is authentic to the context. Whether this is an accurate observation or not, the story is richer for it. For me anyway.

Way over the top, but worth it.

I read the first Socrates novel many years ago. I always enjoy Walter Mosley, and this was no different! The narration was awesome. The voices had me cracking up the whole book!

Socrates is an interesting man...
