A screenplay for the mind, a performance on the page, a work of poetry, a mad mix of genres and styles, a novel in the tradition of William S. Burroughs and Ishmael Reed that is like no other novel, \u003ci\u003eNegrophobia\u003c\/i\u003e begins with the blonde bombshell Bubbles Brazil succumbing to a voodoo spell and entering the inner darkness of her own shiny being. Here crackheads parade in the guise of Muppets, Muslims beat conga drums, Negroes have numbers for names, and H.

By the end of it all, after going on a weird trip for the ages, Bubbles herself is strangely transformed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New York Review of Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/19\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781681373294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Darius James","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43049666183349,"sku":"9781681373294","price":12.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_e42f2959-944f-4f88-9a11-e342b2778b30.jpg?v=1689692500","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/negrophobia-an-urban-parable-9781681373294","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
