Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"From its provocative cover showing a young black boy with a gun to his head all the way through its satirical, ironic, edgy story to a kicky conclusion, Percival Everett's new novel is a stunner. It is the Columbia native's finest book since his debut with "Suder" nearly two decades and 13 books ago, and merits a place on any short list for the best novel this year. It may also prove the breakthrough book for a writer whose artistry and craft and versatility have always ranked considerably higher than his place on any best-seller lists . . . It's also a tour de force for Everett, who cheerily blasts apart our notions of political/racial correctness in a story that is sharp-edged yet lyrically tender-hearted. It's a brilliant book that can only benefit from word of mouth and is virtually guaranteed to be even better than you've heard it is." --The State (Columbia, SC)

Reseña del editor:

Avant-garde novelist and college professor, woodworker, and fly fisherman - Thelonious Ellison has never allowed race to define his identity. But as both a writer and an African American he is offended and angered by the success of We's Lives in Da Getto.
