The Deviant's World

An Unkindness of Ghosts with Rivers Solomon


Listen Later

I sat down with Rivers Solomon, author of our October book club selection, AN UNKINDNESS OF GHOSTS.

We discuss Rivers’s writing process, geek out over history, and explore their powerful debut novel. AN UNKINDNESS OF GHOSTS tackles issues like race, identity, gender, and poverty. It is a beautiful and haunting, queer sci-fi novel that uses Afro-futurism to convey a journey that's truly out of this world. 

Shonda Rhimes called it "a difficult work that pays off; the rare kind of book that stays with you for years." It definitely will.
