Reviews

Four generations of a black North Carolina family emerge in a novel that tracks a teenager's coming to terms with his identity. "Although shifts in time and tone are often jarring and sometimes gratuitous, the strength and richness of Kenan's best passages sweep any objections aside," wrote PW.
