Surreal, horrifying, intense - an African-American explores the meaning of the hypen and slips into a very personal nightmare. What I like best is how the structure of the story - nonlinear, hallucinatory - mirrors what's going on in the main character's head. Despite (or because of) the obvious literary merits, the book is a page-turner in the same way a horror novel would be. Really the best book I have ever read.
