The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
Each month, the Elliott Bay Book Club reads and discusses the best in contemporary fiction with the occasional classic thrown in for good measure. Our selection for October is Caucasia by Danzy Senna. Newsweek said of Caucasia, "...Danzy Senna's remarkable first novel will cling to your memory. There's Birdie, who takes after her mother's white, New England side of the family—light skin, straight hair. There 's her big sister, Cole, who takes after her father, a radical black intellectual. It's the early seventies, and black-power politics divide their parents, who divide the sisters: Cole disappears with their father, and Birdie goes underground with their mother...Senna tells this coming-of-age tale with impressive beauty and power." Senna's debut novel (1998) was the Winner of the Stephen Crane Award for Best New Fiction of the Year, Winner of the American Library Association's Alex Award, and finalist for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award.
