'Fiercely independent, all of Evans's characters struggle for a
place in a world intent of fencing them out.' - New York Times Book
Review A college student's unplanned pregnancy forces her to
confront her feelings of resentment toward her more privileged
classmates. A father's misguided attempt to rescue a gift for his
adult daughter magnifies all he doesn't know about her. And two
teenage girls' flirt with adulthood leads to disastrous
consequences. Based in a world where inequality is reality, but
where the shifting terrain of adolescence and family are the most
complicating forces, Evans' characters are wry, wise and utterly
original. Striking in their emotional immediacy, the electrifying,
prize-winning stories in Before You Suffocate Your Own Fool Self
offer a fresh perspective on race and class in contemporary
America. 'Danielle Evans is funny as hell' - Victor LaValle, author
of Big Machine 'Knife-sharp wit and tender but unflinching eye' -
V.V. Ganeshananthan, author of Love Marriage
