Sag Harbor
Colson Whitehead
From the Pulitzer-Prize winning author of The Underground Railroad a tender, hilarious, and supremely original novel about coming-of-age in the 80s. Benji Cooper is one of the few black students at an elite prep school in Manhattan. But every summer, Benji escapes to the Hamptons, to Sag Harbor, where a small community of African American professionals have built a world of their own. The summer of '85 won't be without its usual trials and tribulations, of course. There will be complicated new handshakes to fumble through and state-of-the-art profanity to master. Benji will be tested by contests big and small, by his misshapen haircut (which seems to have a will of its own), by the New Coke Tragedy, and by his secret Lite FM addiction. But maybe, just maybe, this summer might be one for the ages.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Colson WhiteheadPublisher: Anchor BooksPublished: 06/15/2010ISBN: 9780307455161Pages: 329Weight: 0.54lbsSize: 8.06h x 5.28w x 0.74dReview Citations: New York Times Book Review 07/04/2010 pg. 20
