Synopsis "Sag Harbor "

NATIONAL BESTSELLER - From the two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Underground Railroad and The Nickel Boys a hilarious and supremely original novel set in the Hamptons in the 1980s, "a tenderhearted coming-of-age story fused with a sharp look at the intersections of race and class" (The New York Times). 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 Black 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.Look for Colson Whitehead's bestselling new novel, Harlem Shuffle!

Colson Whitehead (Nueva York, 1969) es un escritor estadounidense reconocido por una obra narrativa que combina experimentación literaria, reconstrucción histórica y crítica social. Graduado de la Universidad de Harvard, comenzó su carrera profesional trabajando en el semanario The Village Voice, donde escribió sobre cultura, literatura y televisión. Su literatura aborda especialmente el racismo, las desigualdades y la experiencia afroamericana en Estados Unidos. Es uno de los pocos escritores que han ganado dos veces el Premio Pulitzer de Ficción, gracias a El ferrocarril subterráneo (2016) y Los chicos de la Nickel (2019). Entre sus otros títulos destacan La intuicionista, Zona Uno y El coloso de Nueva York.

En El ritmo de Harlem (2021), primera entrega de la serie protagonizada por Ray Carney, Whitehead recrea el Harlem de finales de los años cincuenta y comienzos de los sesenta. La novela sigue a un vendedor de muebles que intenta mantener una vida familiar respetable mientras se involucra en el mercado de objetos robados y en un peligroso atraco. Con humor, suspense y personajes complejos, el autor construye una historia criminal que explora la corrupción, las tensiones raciales y las jerarquías sociales de la época. La obra combina el entretenimiento de la novela negra con una mirada crítica a la historia de Nueva York.
