Left Bank Books and the Young Literati of the St. Louis Public Library
present Colson Whitehead. After graduating from Harvard College,
Whitehead began his writing career at the Village Voice with reviews of
television, books and music. His books, The Intuitionist, John Henry
Days, The Colossus of New York, and Apex Hides the Hurt have achieved
popular success and critical acclaim. In his new book Sag Harbor, a
deeply affectionate and fiercely funny coming of age novel,
Whitehad--using the perpetual mortification of teenage existence and
the desperate quest for reinvention--beautifully explores racial and
class identity, illustrating the complex rhythms of the adult world.
