Shetterly gives readers a compelling narrative of personal stories about the 1979 Greensboro massacre and its legacy in the context of Greensboro’s history, the Black liberation movement, and political and revolutionary aspirations to end the nation’s racial disparities and exploitation of the working poor.
Walker’s reflections are honest with trappings of anger, regret, and growth. Readers who enjoyed his previous titles will savor this one, as will new readers, who will want to read his previous works.
A unique crime with an appealing motive, great character development, and engrossing storytelling sustain this novel, but loose ends at its finale might not satisfy some readers. Will appeal to fans of Attica Locke, S.A. Cosby, and Joe Lansdale.
Coles’s novel is another stellar example of how marginalized voices are taking a perennially popular genre, previously dominated by white characters and authors, and revitalizing it for 21st-century readers in a manner that honors its history but injects brand-new terrors, similar to Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas.
This poignant memoir about overcoming devastating odds is a treasure and likely to become a classic. Essential reading for deepening understanding of society, the world, familial relationships, and the meaning of art and life.
Parents and child-welfare professionals will benefit from this excellent work that gives an insider’s view of child protective services. Pair with We Were Once a Family by Roxanna Asgarian.
Filled with stunning photos and original sketches, this is a breathtaking love letter to Tyson, to couture, and to a powerful collaboration. Fashionistas and fans of either Michael or Tyson will be mesmerized.
A highly recommended sweeping saga. Based on a rich archive that includes the survivors’ own stories, one of which became the basis for Zora Neale Hurston’s Barracoon, this title provides a human history of enslaved people and a portrait of the postbellum South.
