Following a bereavement and the breakdown of her relationship, Imani's life takes a new turn.  

Stuff Changes, can you take constructive criticism?

“If you were to ask me to describe the shape of the world. I'd say it isn't round.”

Imani loses her father to cancer and she moves to New York City where she meets a rising Williamsburg hipster art star. As a Greek African American woman, she reflects on her upbringing and young adult life in a world that easily combines prejudice with privilege. Things take a downward turn and Imani escapes a relationship already on the skids to join her British, Stage Director friend Geoffrey

“Mar©o was my first reckless choice for a boyfriend. (He was a hipster art star, a copyright sign replacing the c, his name was an artful reflection on the business of art.)”

Maybe that's why I found myself among 20 naked bodies lying in various positions on a stretched white canvas in a Williamsburg art Gallery.

“Most men objectify women because they can't handle everything that a woman is. Women are mysteries, and the unknown tends to freak people out. So what do you do with a mystery?” (Marco)

“I'm not like my parents. I'm reckless. What did I like about Mar©o? I have no idea.”

“I called my mother and told her about our argument. Her response was unexpected.” 

“Girl, shit hits your fan hard.”
