Title: Notmycupofteabutthatshouldntdissuadeyoufromreading
Date: Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2019
Review: One of my books clubs chose this newly released debut, We Cast a Shadow, by Maurice Carlos Ruffin for our March monthly read. The premise was intriguing - a black father who is essentially trying to save his son from himself. In the not too distant future, as the book describes it, somewhere in the United States, race relations has taken a terrible turn from bad to worse. The unnamed narrator decides, for his son - Nigel, to reach his fullest potential he must undergo a extreme surgical procedure coined demelanization to rid himself of the dark, pigmented birthmark on his otherwise fair, biracial skin.The entire book is about the father doing whatever he sees fit to secure the financial means for the procedure for his son. He's in a race against himself that only he seems to be running. Against his wife's, mother's, and even his son's wishes, the narrator stops at nothing to help "protect" his son. The author does a good job building suspense and creating tension. His writing style pushes the reader forward to discover what happens next. Intertwined in this emotion are some very real scenes that reflect current racial issues, like over-policed neighborhoods of color and mass incarceration. Because the novel is set in the future, it is a bit of downer for those of us who'd like to remain optimistic that these kinds of issues will get better, not worse, with time.I wanted to like this book. I really did. I feel as though the author is smart and his idea was worthy of print. However, I could not get into it. I did finish the book, but it wasn't satisfying for me. These dark comedies usually aren't. I don't know if it was just so unbelievable that someone could hate the essence of their being that much or if it was the misplaced satire that turned me off. I couldn't identify with the narrator. I found him to be unsympathetic, and I think, in the end, he got everything he deserved.I would definitely consider reading another book by Ruffin because I do think he's a talented writer. I just think this wasn't the book for me.Recommendation: Fans of dystopian novels may enjoy this book. I think it's always a good idea to give new writers support. Plus, you have the added benefit of seeing them hone their craft as they publish future works.Until next time ... Read on!Regardless of whether I purchase a book, borrow a book, or am gifted one, my ultimate goal is to be honest, fair, and constructive. I hope you've found this review helpful.

Title: Itaskssomebigandtoughquestions
Date: Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2019
Review: The initial question that one grapples with here; Can one show love or teach love if said one doesn’t love himself? The unnamed Black narrator is an attorney at a prestigious law firm, and so has accomplished himself against all odds in a near future society that is hell bent on the destruction of Black people. But, his dilemma is trying to secure a future for his son that is absent the aggressions that he has faced in his lifetime.His son, Nigel is the product of a white mother and Black father and has a birthmark that his father is afraid will turn ever darker and take over his entire body, enveloping him into everlasting Blackness. To avoid this fate, he dreams, works and prepares for the day when he can afford to demelaninize his son and remove all traces of Blackness and the ability to produce Blackness in any offspring. The horrors of a world ruled by white supremacy is front and center here. That may make it tough reading for some, but the reality of where we are now, and where we might be-concerning race relations-is not only plausible and possible but indeed probable!The bigger challenge for me was not the external, but the internal. Where is the self-love? The esteem built on knowledge of earlier struggles? It is severely lacking in this character, as evidenced by the book’s first sentences.“My name doesn’t matter. All you need to know is that I’m a phantom, a figment, a man who was mistaken for waitstaff twice that night—odd, given my outfit.”So bleaching creams, big hats and admonishments about the sun are stand-ins for love and caring. The unnamed narrator is keenly aware of his self-caused situation and Ruffin at times has him (the narrator) directly address the reader. “Now I’m perfectly aware of the judgmental thoughts running through your head as you read these words. I suspect your pupils have dilated, your lips are agape, your heart filled with venom toward me.”This coming after he smeared the stinking and stinging bleaching cream on his son, Nigel. And doing this he nervily asks, “You know I love you right? One day this will all be in the rear view.”Even as he chalks up his own station in life to luck, he is not willing to take that chance with Nigel. “It’s because I’m lucky, and I know it. Somehow the grinding effects of a world built to hurt me have not yet eliminated my every opportunity for a happy life, as is the case for so many of My brethren. The world is a centrifuge that patiently waits to separate my Nigel from his basic human dignity. I don’t have to tell you that this is an unjust planet.” p. 134. And he justifies his behavior thusly, “A dark-skinned child can expect a life of diminished light. This is truth anywhere in the world and throughout most of history.”Ruffin gives us a few examples here, the basketball player being ejected more often, the applicants name on a job application, apartment evictions, arrests for vagrancy, etc. in the middle of these all too familiar examples for Black folk in the “Home of the Free” he again allow the narrator to speak directly to the reader, “Admittedly, none of these examples are particularly shocking, and I fear that I risk insulting your intelligence, dear reader, but ride with me awhile longer.”Every ‘successful’ conscious Black man in America has had some variation of this thought at one time or another. James Baldwin once remarked, ‘to be a Negro and conscious in America is to be in a constant state of rage.‘This is the grand question of the novel, “What if I can ensure that my boy is not perceived as a Black man? What if he is simply a man? The sadness is contained in the contemplation of such perception. You will laugh, curse, cry, and be twisted in the end.A thoughtful and thought provoking debut written with a confident, carefree prose sprinkled with bits of humor. There are some things so devastating, disgusting and distasteful that humor is the only way to deliver such truths. And for an author to come out the gate this way is nothing short of amazing. I think big things are in store for Mr. Ruffin and I plan to be there as witness! Read this one. Surely, it will be seen on best of 2019 lists!

Title: AnExtraordinaryLookAtTheShadowThatInvolvesAndImplicatesAllOfUs
Date: Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2019
Review: This extraordinary book is essential reading for 2019 and beyond. With echoes that run the gamut from Ellison’s “Invisible Man” to Hawthorne’s “The Birth-Mark” (with multiple touches like references to Zamunda from “Coming To America” for good measure), Ruffin masterfully takes on the issue of race at the core of the American experience. The nameless narrator’s love and concern for protecting his son in a near-future dystopia following oblique references to nuclear war, revolutions, and widespread civil unrest becomes the focal point for considering the issue of race in America. Characters of all races and colors in the book engage the issue in a full, spectrum of complex ways, from protest, to malicious compliance, to defiance, to outright radicalization. Ultimately though, we see through the narrator’s actions and various description of his “fractured psyche” the true cost of the struggle that involves and implicates all of us as we look to the future of America and the world. I highly recommend this book.
