Wow. One of the first things I did when I surrendered to writing a biography was to reread Conde's work on biography as fiction and fiction as biography. Endless gratitude to this great force of creativity and rigor. <3
We’re deeply saddened to hear that Maryse Conde has died. The Grande Dame of Caribbean literature, she was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize twice, in 2015 and 2023, and leaves behind an extraordinary body of work. We send our heartfelt condolences to her family.
k. I'm out. My new feature film, "It Was All a Dream" a visual memoir from my personal archives about the dawn of the golden era of hip hop, debuts in June. I'll post it when it's announced. Be good.
Last night's event at @UChicago was incredible. My mentor and comrade @cathyjcohen has taught me so much. It was an honor to share the stage with her. The pride on her face brings tears to my eyes. This book is for her and every Black woman who taught me. #Blackwomentaughtus
