No disrespect to the person Nana Kwame Adeji-Brenyah might be dating, but when someone writes like this, he or she is definitely Book Bae. I've never read anything like this. From the first story, Adejei-Brenyah comes out the gate swinging; and each story is like a beautifully, devastating, punch to the body. Story after story delivers a body blow, but you welcome each hit. You need the next story. It just hurts so good!
I absolutely loved the sci-fi/fantasy tone to the stories. Nana's writing is superb. Each story is wickedly clever and cerebral, delivering slick, smart, commentary on issues such as race and consumerism in our country. I actually had to take deep breath after each story to recover and process. You can peel back the layers of each story and have discussions for days It was so wonderful!
I am here for this young man and his writing. I am ready for the next hit that he delivers.
