Writer-poet Chantale Rêve returns to her forté – existential journeys of urbanites of color – in her first novella: A Blue Noël.
*** Adults only. Graphic sex and language. ***
From Brooklynite Imani Dumas' perspective, there's nothing like urban dread with head on the side, especially during another jobless winter season. As Christmas draws closer than the top button on one’s skirt or trousers after a Thanksgiving dinner, she can't see the snow drifts for the snowflakes. And worse, she can't escape from herself.
Initially in denial of her dark past, Imani slides along the snowy path of temp employment, her designer knock-off shades bracing against flurries of cautious optimism. Unlike the precipitation on New York City’s pavements, however, she’s not sure the next job will stick. As unsure of her man’s love as she is about taking the next boot step, she stumbles headfirst into an existential crisis – and a doppelgänger or three.
Brace yourself for how this cynical New Yorker negotiates the blurry urban hell of A Blue Noël.
