(A Lucky Man)
Finalist for the 2018 National Book Award in Fiction
“A Lucky Man is just one of those collections that takes your breath away: the voices we hear, the people we meet, they scratch and pull and ache and rage, revealing secrets we usually keep hidden. Every line is pitch perfect. Jamel Brinkley is a writer of extraordinary talent.” —Daniel Alarcón, author of The King is Always Above the People
(The Unpassing)
A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice
“A singularly vast and captivating novel . . . What makes Lin’s novel such an important book is the extent to which it probes America’s mythmaking about itself.” –Brian Haman, The New York Times Book Review
