Product Information

"A badass debut by any measure -- nimble, knowing, and electrifying." -- Colson Whitehead, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Nickel Boys and Harlem Shuffle "...'My Monticello' is, quite simply, an extraordinary debut from a gifted writer with an unflinching view of history and what may come of it." -- The Washington Post Winner of the Weatherford Award in Fiction A winner of 2022 Lillian Smith Book Awards A young woman descended from Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings driven from her neighborhood by a white militia. A university professor studying racism by conducting a secret social experiment on his own son. A single mother desperate to buy her first home even as the world hurtles toward catastrophe. Each fighting to survive in America. Tough-minded, vulnerable, and brave, Jocelyn Nicole Johnson's precisely imagined debut explores burdened inheritances and extraordinary pursuits of belonging. Set in the near future, the eponymous novella, "My Monticello," tells of a diverse group of Charlottesville neighbors fleeing violent white supremacists. Led by Da'Naisha, a young Black descendant of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings, they seek refuge in Jefferson's historic plantation home in a desperate attempt to outlive the long-foretold racial and environmental unravelling within the nation. In "Control Negro," hailed by Roxane Gay as "one hell of story," a university professor devotes himself to the study of racism and the development of ACMs (average American Caucasian males) by clinically observing his own son from birth in order to "painstakingly mark the route of this Black child too, one whom I could prove was so strikingly decent and true that America could not find fault in him unless we as a nation had projected it there." Johnson's characters all seek out home as a place and an internal state, whether in the form of a Nigerian widower who immigrates to a meager existence in the city of Alexandria, finding himself adrift; a young mixed-race woman who adopts a new tongue and name to escape the landscapes of rural Virginia and her family; or a single mother who seeks salvation through "Buying a House Ahead of the Apocalypse." United by these characters' relentless struggles against reality and fate, My Monticello is a formidable book that bears witness to this country's legacies and announces the arrival of a wildly original new voice in American fiction.

Reviews
"A badass debut by any measure -- nimble, knowing, and electrifying." -- Colson Whitehead, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Nickel Boys and Harlem Shuffle "It is a rare breed of writer who can tell any kind of story and do so with exquisite deftness. Jocelyn Nicole Johnson is one such writer. Her debut collection, My Monticello , is comprised of six stories of astonishing range and each one explores what it means to live in a world that is at once home and not. She dissects the unbearable burdens of such displacement. The crowning glory of this collection is the title story, a novella about a world that has fallen apart and a small band of people who take refuge in Monticello, among the old ghosts of the former plantation, how they become family, and how they try to make a stand for their lives, for the world the way it once was. This collection is absolutely unforgettable and Johnson's prose soars to remarkable heights." --Roxane Gay, New York Times bestselling author of Hunger and Ayiti "I was enthralled from the opening lines of this book. These chilling, thought-provoking and expertly crafted stories showcase Johnson's range and ability--they broke my heart as well as my brain. A stunning collection." --Charles Yu, National Book Award-winning author of Interior Chinatown " My Monticello is a magnificent debut that holds so much in its gaze--great love and great oppression, tremendous individual courage and systemic racism, futures of joyful justice and futures of extremism. This breathtaking, artful book is a gift." --Megha Majumdar, New York Times bestselling author of A Burning "With Virginia as the heart, Jocelyn Nicole Johnson brings to life a body of stories sustained by a cast of characters so unique, sincere, and determined that you will not only root for them, but see your own humanity reflected back. A collection where hope serves as the connective tissue, My Monticello reaffirms our deepest desires for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness while examining the soil of our nation and the fruit it bears." --Mateo Askaripour, New York Times bestselling author of Black Buck " My Monticello is a gorgeous, devastating collection of stories spotlighting the ways a life, a country, and a planet can tend toward disaster but still be worth fighting for. Johnson's stories exquisitely balance the interior and the exterior: the world of inequalities and disappointments stacked against her characters is illuminated by their full and compelling desires, and by her honest exploration of the major and minor cruelties survival requires. This is a stunning debut by a brilliant and original new voice." --Danielle Evans, award-winning author of The Office of Historical Corrections "There is a special pleasure in discovering a voice that is vital and unlike anything else you've known before. Jocelyn Nicole Johnson is such a voice. One that is necessary and brimming with both heart and imagination, Johnson's My Monticello is a beautiful debut work of art." --Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, New York Times bestselling author of Friday Black "The title novella that closes Johnson's debut book is stellar and could easily stand on its own. . . . Johnson has a knack for irony and inventive conceits." --Kirkus starred review "This incandescent work speaks not just to the moment, but to history." --Publishers Weekly starred review, "A badass debut by any measure -- nimble, knowing, and electrifying." -- Colson Whitehead, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Nickel Boys and Harlem Shuffle "It is a rare breed of writer who can tell any kind of story and do so with exquisite deftness.

An outstanding experience from beginning to end. Seller was responsive and fast with all communication (messaging within the eBay app). I am particularly appreciative of the fact that the seller was willing to accommodate my request to arrange a local pickup instead of delivery via postal mail. The item was as described and, true to the seller's word, was in excellent "like new" condition. I would purchase again from this seller without hesitation.
