The Genealogist's Novel and Mirko in America

The Genealogist's Novel is a captivating, ambitious, timely novella that dives into the thorny and slippery issues of race in the U. S.




Through a series of comic humiliations tracking the wanderings of a highly intellectual immigrant poet, Mirko in America manages to home in on the beautiful, awkward, half-cocked American experience in a way very few works of fiction can.
