ReviewsThe Coming is powerful. And beautiful... .This is a work to be proud of. - Charles Johnson, National Book Award Winner for Middle Passage Part homage to the proud and diverse cultures of Africa, part nightmare of the people stolen from those lands, THE COMING seduces us with poetry, then breaks our hearts, but ultimately inspires us to celebrate the indomitable soul of humanity." -George Weinstein, author of Hardscrabble Road "History as horror story, horror story as fable, fable as fervent prayer. Daniel Black's mesmerizing novel, The Coming , is all three simultaneously." - Victor LaValle, author of The Devil in Silver " The Coming is a harrowing and visionary account of the darkest moment in our history. Daniel Black bravely reimagines the birth of the slave trade and puts us on the very boats that tore a people from their land, writing America's earliest chapters in tears and blood." -Thomas Mullen, author of The Many Deaths of the Firefly Brothers and winner of the 2012 Townsend Award."Dr. Black brings to life-a clear picture of inhumanity and its far-reaching impact." -Clifton L. Taulbert, author of Once Upon A Time When We Were Colored and Eight Habits of the Heart

Synopsis" The Coming is powerful. And beautiful...This is a work to be proud of."--Charles Johnson, National Book Award winner for Middle Passage Lyrical, poetic, and hypnotizing, The Coming tells the story of a people's capture and sojourn from their homeland across the Middle Passage--a traumatic trip that exposed the strength and resolve of the African spirit. Extreme conditions produce extraordinary insight, and only after being stripped of everything do they discover the unspeakable beauty they once took for granted. This powerful, haunting novel will shake readers to their very souls. "Part homage to the proud and diverse cultures of Africa, part nightmare of the people stolen from those lands, The Coming seduces us with poetry, then breaks our hearts, but ultimately inspires us to celebrate the indomitable soul of humanity." -- George Weinstein, author of Hardscrabble Road
