"It's hard to pigeonhole Percival Everett. Working between the
traditions of the academy and the African American tall tale, he writes
with a sharp satirical voice." —Playboy |
Price: $15.00 USD
A cop, a cowboy, several fly fisherman, and even a reluctant romance
novelist inhabit these revealing and often hilarious stories. An old
man ends up in a high-speed chase with the cops after stealing the car
that blocks the garbage bin at his apartment building. A stranger gets
a job at a sandwich shop and fixes everything in sight: a manual
mustard dispenser, a mouthful of crooked teeth, thirty-two parking
tickets, and a sexual-identity problem.
Percival Everett is a master storyteller who ingeniously addresses
issues of identity and prejudice by simultaneously satirizing and
celebrating the human condition.
