The Ballad of Black Tom
by Victor LaValle
I did something big, bigger than anyone will understand for a long time. I was just so angry.
Why aren't more people raving about Victor LaValle? This was excellent. 149 pages and not a word wasted. An elegantly crafted horror novella set in Jazz Age New York about Charles Thomas Tester, and the circumstances that befall him, in part due to his being a black man in the early 20th century. I'm not even sure how to describe what this is...just go read it.
