Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Can a nice plantation-bred Southern girl find her destiny as a radical lesbian and sometime fugitive? Well, yes, if the girl is Ellen Burns and the author is Blanche McCrary Boyd. In this wickedly transgressive new novel, Boyd follows the heroine of 'The Revolution of Little Girls' through the warped looking glass of the 1970s, when every orgasm was a political statement and heterosexuality could be termed an act of war.…

Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. This finalist for the 2019 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction is the story of a former activist whose search for her estranged brother leads her across the country and into the dark abyss of racism and white supremacy, and the confrontation that occurs when she learns the truth about her family's past. Blanche McCrary Boyd's first novel in twenty years continues the story of her protagonist Ellen Burns. When Tomb of the Unknown Racist opens in 1999, Ellen--now sober, haunted by her activist past and her failed relationships--is peacefully taking care of her demented mother in South Carolina. Ellen's brother, Royce, was a celebrated novelist who, a decade earlier, saw his work adopted by racists and fell under the sway of white supremacy. Ellen thought him dead from a botched FBI raid on his compound. But when his estranged daughter turns up on the news claiming he might be responsible for kidnapping her two mixed-race children, Ellen travels to New Mexico to help her newfound niece. The book chronicles Ellen's search for Royce, her descent into the dark abyss of the simmering race war in the country, and the confrontation that occurs when she learns the truth about her family's past. Tomb of the Unknown Racist is a thrilling novel set in the shadow of the Oklahoma City bombing, the subculture of white supremacy, and deep-state government. A family drama set against political and racial struggle, it is a tour de force end to a trilogy by a stunning writer whose work has offered a resonant survey of politics and activism across the American experience.…
