My new novel HARLEM SHUFFLE will be published in the fall of 2021. The New Yorker ran a sneak peek excerpt and also a piece where I talk about it. Here is some more information about it, and also the Publishers Weekly review, the Kirkus review, and an interview.
In other news, Barry Jenkins's adaptation of THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD is out. It’s freaking incredible. Here it is. Here is an interview with me & Barry and here is a review.
THE NICKEL BOYS is out in paperback. There is information about it here. The New Yorker has a chapter here. And this is a nice review. It won the Pulitzer Prize, which is pretty nutty, the Kirkus Prize for Fiction, and the Orwell Prize for Political Fiction. It was a New York Times Bestseller, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, and was longlisted for the Carnegie Medal and the National Book Award.
