520    A stunning new talent in literary fiction, Nafissa 
       Thompson-Spires grapples with black identity and the 
       contemporary middle class in these compelling, boundary-
       pushing vignettes. Each captivating story plunges 
       headfirst into the lives of new, utterly original 
       characters. Some are darkly humorous-from two mothers 
       exchanging snide remarks through notes in their kids' 
       backpacks, to the young girl contemplating how best to 
       notify her Facebook friends of her impending suicide-while
       others are devastatingly poignant-a new mother and funeral
       singer who is driven to madness with grief for the young 
       black boys who have fallen victim to gun violence, or the 
       teen who struggles between her upper middle class 
       upbringing and her desire to fully connect with black 
       culture. Thompson-Spires fearlessly shines a light on the 
       simmering tensions and precariousness of black 
       citizenship. Her stories are exquisitely rendered, 
       satirical, and captivating in turn, engaging in the 
       ongoing conversations about race and identity politics, as
       well as the vulnerability of the black body. Boldly 
       resisting categorization and easy answers, Nafissa 
       Thompson-Spires is an original and necessary voice in 
       contemporary fiction.
