The instant New York Times bestseller 'An unbelievable debut' New York Times Racism, but "managed" through virtual reality Black Friday, except you die in a bargain-crazed throng Happiness, but pharmacological Love, despite everything A Publisher's Weekly Most Anticipated Book for Fall 2018 Friday Black tackles urgent instances of racism and cultural unrest, and explores the many ways we fight for humanity in an unforgiving world.

'An excitement and a wonder' George Saunders 'The writing in this outstanding collection will make you hurt and demand your hope' Roxane Gay 'The fiction debut of the year. Bravo young man. We await your encore' Mary Karr
