Media Reviews

"Brutal, spectacular, discursive, academic, dense, polemic and, ultimately, brilliant....Perhaps the most significant work by a new male black author since James Baldwin dazzled the early '60s with his fine fury."

First Line

Sometimes you can hear the wire, hear it reaching out across the miles; whining with its own weight, crying from the cold, panting at the distance, humming with the phantom sounds of someone else's conversation.
