Percival Everett – Suder (1983). An absurd, brilliantly imaginative comic novel about freedom. Baseball player Craig Suder has trouble with his game and home life. He takes off on a surreal adventure involving a Charlie Parker LP, a man who wants to kill him and an adopted elephant. #PercivalEverett

If you haven't read/listened to James by Percival Everett, do it now. It is a profound, life-altering masterpiece of a book. Reimagining Huck Finn from Jim’s perspective, it is sharp, brilliant, and devastating - one of my top 10 books of all time. 📖✨🛶 #BookSky #PercivalEverett

Saw #AmericanFiction tonight. Now eager to read the book, "Erasure," by #PercivalEverett, that is the source.

#JefferyWright is PHENOMENAL. A middle-aged Oldest Son realizing he is now the adult caretaking his family as it falls apart. Their needs make his lucrative literary joke go on too long.

Thank you! I’m spreading as much love as I can for #PulitzerPrize fiction winner #PercivalEverett & his awesome book ‘James.’ I’m halfway thru the audio because I really wanted it read to me.

I’m about halfway through the audio version of this.
‘James’ by #PercivalEverett

I feel fairly certain in stating this will go down as definitive of our time & generation.
It is a bold & clever, not-sugar-coated retelling of #MarkTwain.
James’s (Jim) perspective.
