Racial and sexual politics collide in this cult classic that launchedLaferrièreas one of North America's finest literary provocateurs.
Brilliant and tense,Dany Laferrière's first novel,How to Make Love to a Negro without Getting Tired, is as fresh and relevant today as when it was first published in 1985. With raunchy humor and a working-class intellectualism,Laferrière's narrator wanders the slums of Montreal, has sex with white women, and writes a book to save his life.
With this novel,Laferrièrebegan a series of internationally acclaimed social and political novels about the love of the world, and the world of sex, includingHeading SouthandI Am a Japanese Writer.
