Product Description
In Erica Simone Turnipseeds captivating followup to A Love Noire heartache fans the flames of lust when freethinking Noire and Innocent her urbane African ex reunite. Noire and Innocent are both having a thirtysomething crisis. His former identity as a successful investment banker and eligible bachelor has disappeared. A beleaguered graduate student shes got no money no man and no Ph.D. yet. A year of predoctoral research in Haiti leaves Noire drained. And a trip home to Cte dIvoire offers Innocent little more than intermittent sexual gratification. In the aftermath of 911 Innocent and Noire are back in New York City and find solace in each others bed. But even that arrangement collapses under the weight of Innocents revelation that he has unfinished business in Africa. For Innocent and Noire patching together their unraveling lives becomes an exercise in hope and humility. With Hunger Turnipseed lives up to the promise of A Love Noire and has matured into a writer who fearlessly explores the intersection of sex love identity and loss in a crosscultural context. show more
