“An inventive writer who shows great promise… Kenan continues Baldwin’s legendary tradition of ‘telling it on the mountain’ by giving a voice to the unvarnished truth about blacks.” —The San Francisco Chronicle “Kenan demands attention. He often seems to speak rather than to write: one feels more a listener than a reader, drawing a chair up to his fire.” —The Observer “A talented young novelist and short-story writer… What makes Kenan…so unusual is his willingness to look beyond the usual places.” —The New York Times “Kenan [presents] a magnificent panoramic view of what it means to be human, filled with insight and wisdom and provocation, cause for hope and celebration.” —The Times-Picayune
