Mojo Hand

An Orphic Tale

Beschreibung

"Stark and inevitable as Greek tragedy, it is a contemporary Orphic tale that can be read on many levels. It is at once a story about the complexity of racial identity, about men and women, about the Other, about music and the blues, about the richness of language itself"--
