Episode 185: The Perils of Black Manhood
Manage episode 327057441 series 1195362
In his mix of genres in his collection of personal essays, TO THOSE BOUNDED, Donald Quist examines the perils of black manhood in America. He reflects on the fracturing of identity necessary to survive living in America. Quist mercilessly examines his experiences from childhood to marriage to death, and how it interacts with the American myth of exceptionalism while many struggle to survive. It was one of the best books I read in 2021.
Donald Quist is also author of HARBORS, a Foreword INDIES Bronze Winner and International Book Awards Finalist. He has a linked story collection, For Other Ghosts. He is creator of the online nonfiction series PAST TEN. He is Director of the MFA in Writing at Vermont College of Fine Arts. His web site is https://www.donaldquist.com/.
