Abdurraqib’s meditation on Black music and performance, A Little Devil in America, was inspired. This new book, a literary memoir about basketball and what it takes to be successful, what it means to ‘make it’, is just as poetic and political. Thrilling, both at the level of the sentence and the collective: in cities, streets, concrete courts.
