INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

"An unbelievable debut, one that announces a new and necessary American voice." --Tommy Orange, New York Times Book Review

"An excitement and a wonder: strange, crazed, urgent and funny." --George Saunders

"Dark and captivating and essential . . . A call to arms and a condemnation . . . Read this book." --Roxane Gay

A National Book Foundation "5 Under 35" honoree, chosen by Colson Whitehead
Winner of the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award
Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle's John Leonard Award for Best First Book

A piercingly raw debut story collection from a young writer with an explosive voice; a treacherously surreal, and, at times, heartbreakingly satirical look at what it's like to be young and black in America.

From the start of this extraordinary debut, Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah's writing will grab you, haunt you, enrage and invigorate you. By placing ordinary characters in extraordinary situations, Adjei-Brenyah reveals the violence, injustice, and painful absurdities that black men and women contend with every day in this country.

These stories tackle urgent instances of racism and cultural unrest, and explore the many ways we fight for humanity in an unforgiving world. In "The Finkelstein Five," Adjei-Brenyah gives us an unforgettable reckoning of the brutal prejudice of our justice system. In "Zimmer Land," we see a far-too-easy-to-believe imagining of racism as sport. And "Friday Black" and "How to Sell a Jacket as Told by Ice King" show the horrors of consumerism and the toll it takes on us all.

Entirely fresh in its style and perspective, and sure to appeal to fans of Colson Whitehead, Marlon James, and George Saunders, Friday Black confronts readers with a complicated, insistent, wrenching chorus of emotions, the final note of which, remarkably, is hope.

The perfect dish soap!
Great product! Arrived well boxed and packaged. My dishes are clean, the soap smells great, and the spray package works perfectly. Great product!

Skip this soap
The spray bottle design is awful. The nozzle shoots liquid everywhere and it takes 3 pumps to even become foam. As far as the soap itself, while it does clean food off dishes, the suds disappear quickly so you end up using way more than standard brands. The lemon scent is nice.

Powerful foaming spray
Love the powerful jet of foam this gives on my dishes. Small leak in the bag, but I just tightened the screw thing and it fixed it.

SLS free
I am looking forward to receiving this product to go with their SLS free hand soap, and to have this bottle on display in my kitchen. Since the spray nozzle seems to get decent reviews I'm considering buying the 6 bottle set.
