About This Book
Christina Sharpe's 248 numbered notes move between personal memoir, cultural criticism, and political meditation to examine Blackness, mourning, and art. Written in the wake of her mother's death, the book weaves together elegiac lyricism and radical critique. Shortlisted for the NBCC Award.
