September/October 2003: What's happening around the Cafe?

--------

{CafeNews.104.6}: Leif Utne {leif} Wed, 01 Oct 2003 17:18:17 EDT (HTML)

Welcome to the October 2003
Utne Book Club discussion of

Erasure
By Percival Everett
(Hyperion, 2001)

Sick and tired of being unread, author Thelonius "Monk" Ellison gives up his erudite style and, with tongue in cheek, turns out a preposterous "ghetto" novel full of gangsta violence. Presto: he turns into America's hottest new black writer. A hilarious sendup of American expectations about race and culture.

This month's discussion hosted by Utne contributing editor Jacqueline White. Please join us in the Book Club forum, topic 16.

Buy Erasure online at Powell's Books (a portion of the sale supports Cafe Utne), or pick it up at your local bookstore.
