About this product

Product Information

"From the first page you know you're in the hands of an exceptional writer... I adored this book." --Zadie Smith "Sexy and radical and intimate." --Miranda July Named a Best Book of 2016 by VICE, Elle, Nylon , Publishers Weekly and NPR Named one of the most anticipated books of the fall by the Huffington Post, New York, The Boston Globe, Lit Hub, and The Millions Now available in Ecco's Art of the Story series: a never-before-published collection of stories from a brilliant yet little known African American artist and filmmaker--a contemporary of revered writers including Toni Cade Bambara, Laurie Colwin, Ann Beattie, Amy Hempel, and Grace Paley--whose prescient work has recently resurfaced to wide acclaim. Humorous, poignant, perceptive, and full of grace, Kathleen Collins's stories masterfully blend the quotidian and the profound in a personal, intimate way, exploring deep, far-reaching issues--race, gender, family, and sexuality--that shape the ordinary moments in our lives. In "The Uncle," a young girl who idolizes her handsome uncle and his beautiful wife makes a haunting discovery about their lives. In "Only Once," a woman reminisces about her charming daredevil of a lover and his ultimate--and final--act of foolishness. Collins's work seamlessly integrates the African-American experience in her characters' lives, creating rich, devastatingly familiar, full-bodied men, women, and children who transcend the symbolic, penetrating both the reader's head and heart. Both contemporary and timeless, Whatever Happened to Interracial Love? is a major addition to the literary canon, and is sure to earn Kathleen Collins the widespread recognition she is long overdue.

Reviews
How well she understands mixed motives, emotions and bloodlines. Histories and legacies at cross-purposes. Elective and compulsive affinities, both intellectual and erotic. How unlucky we were to lose her. And how lucky we are to have these stories., This book is one of the most eloquent statements I have read of what it was like to be black and young and alive in the 1960s. I applaud its publication., These stories offer a sharp, clear, unsentimental vision of race in the sixties, the mingling of politics and desire, the search for place that will be both exotic and familiar to modern readers, richly historical and utterly recognizable., This previously unpublished collection of her stories will have many readers wishing they'd seen her work before... Acute and lucidly rendered... With a quick but searing touch of the brush, Collins crosses racial, gender, and generational divides, and her readers will, too., Kathleen Collins has the dramatist's gift for multiple voices and viewpoints. Here are parents and children, blacks and whites, blacks and other blacks, lovers (together and apart); here are, intellectuals, artists, dreamers, strivers, braggarts and idealists: all struggling to justify their lives to each other and to themselves., It is a delightful literary discovery that the creator of the landmark film, 'Losing Ground,' also turned her hand to fiction. The stories collected here are witty and revealing, and together constitute an unearthed gem of black women's fiction., [Collins'] stories are intense meditations on love, heartbreak, youthful ennui, gender, and race...The stories in this collection are often conversational and candid, as though the reader has been invited to have a chat with the narrator...There are shades in the intimacy and urgency of Collins' writing of Lorraine Hansberry and Zora Neale Hurston...Sharp and lovely...Collins' work will certainly be canonized now, but what a shame that didn't happen earlier.
