Harlem Shuffle

This is a fantastic evocation of a particular time and place. I can only imagine it must have taken stacks and stacks of research, into furniture brands alone, but it's all worn lightly, there to serve the story rather than the other way round. Some of the prose is terrific, real I'm just going to go back and reread that paragraph to appreciate it again stuff. It's good to see Colson Whitehead returning to genre fiction. Zone One was one of the best zombie novels of the last few decades, and while, let's be honest, the crime fiction field is a lot more crowded, Whitehead can hold his head high with this one. Can't wait for his SF novel!
