"A delight and highly recommended." -Booklist "Showcases the truth
and fullness of people of color." -Book Riot In the tradition of
Best American Short Stories comes Everyday People: The Color of
Life, a dazzling collection of contemporary short fiction. Everyday
People is a thoughtfully curated anthology of short stories that
presents new and renowned work by established and emerging writers
of color. It illustrates the dynamics of character and culture that
reflect familial strife, political conflict, and personal turmoil
through an array of stories that reveal the depth of the human
experience. Representing a wide range of styles, themes, and
perspectives, these selected stories depict moments that
linger-crossroads to be navigated, relationships, epiphanies, and
times of doubt, loss, and discovery. A celebration of writing and
expression, Everyday People brings to light the rich tapestry that
binds us all. The contributors are an eclectic mix of award-winning
and critically lauded writers, including Mia Alvar, Carleigh Baker,
Nana Brew-Hammond, Glendaliz Camacho, Alexander Chee, Mitchell S.
Jackson, Yiyun Li, Allison Mills, Courttia Newland, Dennis Norris
II, Jason Reynolds, Nelly Rosario, Hasanthika Sirisena, and Brandon
Taylor. Some of the proceeds from the sale of Everyday People will
benefit the Rhode Island Writers Colony, a nonprofit organization
founded by the late Brook Stephenson that provides space for
speculation, production, and experimentation by writers of color.
