Praise
“Excellent. . . . A funny and moving memoir, it is one of the frankest accounts of race relations in America in recent years.” –The New York Times Book Review“With clarity, courage, and a deep familiarity with his literary predecessors–from James Joyce to James Baldwin–Clemens has written a book as riven, wounded, and yet surprisingly durable as its subject.” –Jeffrey Eugenides, author of Middlesex“Compelling. . . . his relationship to Detroit is rich and complex, brimming with experiences both hurtful and redemptive.” –The Los Angeles Times“Marvelous. . . . Passionate, intelligent.” –Entertainment Weekly
