"This book will change you." --Chicago Tribune

White Girls is about, among other things, blackness, queerness, movies, Brooklyn, love (and the loss of love), AIDS, fashion, Basquiat, Capote, philosophy, porn, Eminem, Louise Brooks, and Michael Jackson. Freewheeling and dazzling, tender and true, it is one of the most daring and provocative books of recent years, an invaluable guide to the culture of our time.

The final essay on queer misremembering “It Will Soon Be Here” caps off a superb collection of essays that took me to many people. Als is insightful on Black and/or Queer cultures. I loved his pieces on Michael Jackson, Truman Capote, and Richard Pryor. Als is a real talent. I look forward to reading more of his work that I first heard in The New Yorker: the Matter of Black Lives.
