A New York Times Bestseller

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, National Book Award,

and Kirkus Prize

One of the noblest characters in American literature gets a novel worthy of him.

(Kirkus Review)

"James" by Percival Everett is a masterful reimagining of a classic tale that invites readers to explore the complexities of race, identity and humanity through the eyes of an enslaved character. With its rich characterization, sharp wit, and profound themes, the novel stands as a  powerful commentary on America's past and present, making it a must- read for anyone interested in literature that challenges and enlightens.
