Soul city

a novel

Edición de la obra Soul city

"Welcome to Soul City, where roses bloom in the cracks of the sidewalk along Cornbread Boulevard, musical genres become political platforms, and children use their allowance money to buy records from the Vinylmobile. It's an unusually peaceful American community with a strong heritage and sense of unity - at least, that's how Cadillac Jackson first finds it." "When Jackson, a journalist, visits Soul City on a magazine assignment, a mayoral election is imminent and candidates from opposing parties are campaigning hard to control the city's sound track. Amid the increasingly hostile competition, Cadillac falls for Mahogany, a beautiful Soul City citizen, and begins a struggle to shed the embattled African-American identity he's been taught to adopt - in order to start existing in a community where the content of his character really does determine a Black man's worth. What he discovers reveals as much about himself as it does about human nature and ethnicity in America."--BOOK JACKET.
