Black is the Body
A New Statesman essential non-fiction read of 2021
''Everybody should read [this]'' Stylist
"Blackness is an art, not a science. It is a paradox: intangible and visceral; a situation and a story. It is the thread that connects these essays, but its significance as an experience emerges randomly, unpredictably. . . . Race is the story of my life, and therefore black is the body of this book."
