Description

‘Let The Dead Bury Their Dead’, Written by Randall Kenan

‘A genius; our black Marquez’ Terry McMillan

‘Nothing short of a wonder-book.’ New York Times

‘Randall Kenan has opened a treasure chest that continues to spill jewels even after the book is closed… brilliant and stylish… a book that stays with you, as warm as a North Carolina sun and as jolting as that first gulp of lemonade on a steamy summer’s day.’ Boston Globe

‘A very daring first novel, courageous in its ambition, innovative in its execution, and at once successful and exciting in its overall effect… This is New South fiction with a vengeance with genuine panache… Pandall Kenan has courage and talent to spare’ Chicago Tribune

‘Randall Kenan is a genius: our black Marquez. He weaves myth, folktales, magic and reality like no-one else I know, and doesn’t miss a beat.’ Terry McMillan
