Title: Annotations
Author: Keene, John
ISBN: 9780811213042
Publisher: New Directions
Published: 1995
Binding: Quality
Language: English
Condition: New
New from the publisher
Fiction 1287195
Publisher Description:
An experimental first novel of poem-like compression, Annotations has a great deal to say about growing up Black in St. Louis. Reminiscent of Jean Toomer's Cane, the book is in part a meditation on African-American autobiography. Keene explores questions of identity from many angles--from race to social class to sexuality (gay and straight). Employing all manner of textual play and rhythmic and rhetorical maneuvers, he (re)creates his life story as a jazz fugue-in-words.
