Descriere magazin:
A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK - Mat Johnson\'s] unrelenting examination of blackness, whiteness and everything in between is handled with ruthless candor and riotous humor.--Los Angeles Times Razor-sharp . . . Loving Day is that rare m lange: cerebral comedy with pathos.--The New York Times Book Review NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times - San Francisco Chronicle - NPR - Men\'s Journal - The Miami Herald - The Denver Post - Slate - The Kansas City Star - San Antonio Express-News - Time Out New York Warren Duffy has returned to America for all the worst reasons: His marriage to a beautiful Welsh woman has come apart; his comics shop in Cardiff has failed; and his Irish American father has died, bequeathing to Warren his last possession, a roofless, half-renovated mansion in the heart of black Philadelphia. On his first night in his new home, Warren spies two figures outside in the grass. When he screws up the nerve to confront them, they disappear. The next day he encounters ghosts of a different kind: In the face of a teenage girl he meets at a comics convention he sees the mingled features of his white father and his black mother, both now dead. The girl, Tal, is his daughter, and she\'s been raised to think she\'s white. Spinning from these revelations, Warren sets off to remake his life with a reluctant daughter he\'s never known, in a haunted house with a history he knows too well. In their search for a new life, he and Tal struggle with ghosts, fall in with a utopian mixed-race cult, and ignite a riot on Loving Day, the unsung holiday for interracial lovers. A frequently hilarious, surprisingly moving story about blacks and whites, fathers and daughters, the living and the dead, Loving Day celebrates the wonders of opposites bound in love. Praise for Loving Day Incisive . . . razor-sharp . . . that rare m lange: cerebral comedy with pathos. The vitality of our narrator deserves much of the credit for that. He has the neurotic bawdiness of Philip Roth\'s Alexander Portnoy; the keen, caustic eye of Bob Jones in Chester Himes\'s If He Hollers Let Him Go; the existential insight of Ellison\'s Invisible Man.--The New York Times Book Review Exceptional . . . To say that Loving Day is a book about race is like saying Moby-Dick is a book about whales. . . . Mat Johnson\'s] unrelenting examination of blackness, whiteness and everything in between is handled with ruthless candor and riotous humor. . . . Even when th
