PubReads: Erasure by Percival Everett

Erasure by Percival Everett is a sharp satire about Thelonious “Monk” Ellison, a Black writer whose serious work is ignored until he pens a parody of stereotypical “Black” stories—only for it to become a bestseller, forcing him to confront race, identity, and the publishing world’s narrow expectations.

Copies of the book are available at the Main Library one month before the discussion and on LIbby and Hoopla.  PubReads meets at the Van Aken District Market Hall (Raider's Space) at 3441 Tuttle Rd., Shaker Heights, OH 44122.
