The Conjure Woman
Charles W. Chestnutt
"That history is tricky. It makes clear that what made Chesnutt’s readers delight in The Conjure Woman was not the nuance and care of the argument he was making. They liked the entertainment..." Amazing piece by @imaniperry on Charles Chesnutt. https://t.co/TyUfSEuEY3

The Weight
Jeff Boyd
Latest review for @nytimesbooks. “The Weight” presents the engrossing portrait of a man in a bizarre place, at a bizarre time, doing what he can to live with the extraordinary load he carries in his heart and the sheer mass imposed upon his mind. https://t.co/VYVjQYqPXN

Sweet, Soft, Plenty Rhythm
Laura Warrell
Some people think jazz died along with Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, and all of the other greats; as if you can’t walk down a street and still hear the wail of a trumpet. Not true, and this is one of the most appealing aspects of Sweet, Soft, Plenty Rhythm.

Brinkley pierces the superficial and obvious... Tapping into the sticky stuff of humanity, each story is a gift of the highest quality, reminding us that we are all both in the audience and on life’s stage, even if we don’t know it. Forever the witness and the witnessed.

Everything Abridged: Stories
Dennard Dayle
Been waiting for Dennard Dayle’s debut collection, EVERYTHING ABRIDGED, to drop. I read it late last year, and it shook the shit out of me, in the best way possible. One of the most innovative collections I’ve ever read. Congrats, @See_More_Evil 💪🏽 https://t.co/pw7QABNwlF
