Forlagsbeskrivelse af Fish Tales The Dazzling Lost Classic af Nettie Jones
A provocative, sharp-voiced and sometimes shocking rediscovered classic about desire, power and female sexuality - the last book acquired by Toni Morrison. THE REDISCOVERED CULT CLASSIC Bouncing between the bohemian demimonde of New York and the affluent Black community of Detroit in the 1970s, Lewis Jones is a party girl for the ages - a woman in her thirties who has reached a point of freedom, confidence, and mayhem. She is supported in her adventures, in every way, by her husband, Woody. She is accompanied by her friend Kitty Kat, a gay hustler with impeccable style and a knack for finding all the best spots. She soaks in baths of champagne, powders her nose with cocaine, wakes up on silk sheets with a variety of lovers. and then she is finally, truly upended by the handsome, erudite, often cruel Brook - a man who won''t tolerate her attempts to take control.A wild swirl of desire, pleasure, power, drugs, and sex, this is a bold exploration of the blurred spaces we inhabit-sexuality and race, agency and exploitation, selfhood and intimacy, sanity and self-destruction, art and the profane. Provocative, sharp-tongued and kaleidoscopic, Fish Tales is time-capsule with an unnervingly contemporary message.
