Before You Suffocate Your Own Fool Self (häftad, eng)

<p><b>'Fiercely independent, all of Evans&rsquo;s characters struggle for a place in a world intent of fencing them out.' - <i>New York Times Book Review</i></b><br><br><i>The extraordinary début short story collection from Danielle Evans, one of the United States' foremost literary talents, is published in the UK for the first time.</i><br><br>A college student's unplanned pregnancy forces her to confront her feelings of resentment toward her more privileged classmates.

A father&rsquo;s misguided attempt to rescue a gift for his adult daughter magnifies all he doesn&rsquo;t know about her. And two teenage girls&rsquo; flirt with adulthood leads to disastrous consequences.<br><br>Based in a world where inequality is reality, but where the shifting terrain of adolescence and family are the most complicating forces, Evans&rsquo; characters are wry, wise and utterly original.

Striking in their emotional immediacy, the electrifying, prize-winning stories in <i>Before You Suffocate Your Own Fool Self </i>offer a fresh perspective on race and class in contemporary America.<br><br><b>'Danielle Evans is funny as hell' - Victor LaValle, author of <i>Big Machine</i></b><br><br><b>'Knife-sharp wit and tender but unflinching eye' - V.V Ganeshananthan, author of <i>Love Marriage</i></b></p>
