The Wedding Book

While younger writers obsess over the need to show rather than tell, the octogenarian West simply grabs you by the lapels and drags you headlong through a multigenerational saga of affluent, Martha's Vineyard blacks who are so fair in complexion that they're almost white.

You won't mind, because there is greatness here as well as gripping storytelling.Read More
