This daring, abrasive satire is a deliberate subversion of harmful cultural assumptions, with wicked wit and characters who speak a pop-philosopher patois.
The African American protagonist called Me is at the supreme court, Me v the United States of America. Me’s alleged crimes are the holding of a slave and the formal “re-segregation” of Me’s majority-black-and-Latino suburb of Los Angeles.
Over the course of the novel its characters’ minds sound out Tolstoy, Kafka, Lee Morgan, the enduring mass entertainment appeal of certain forms of racial stereotyping and ill-advised stand-up jokes.

Important book, but a difficult read.

I will take it with me to Scotland to the Convention in June.

For the book buffet of the International Bookcrossing Convention 2023 in Falkirk.

Picked up from the book buffet, thank you!

Tried this and couldn’t get into it I’m afraid, so wild releasing for someone else to enjoy.
