The Last White Man - Hardcover
One morning, a man wakes up to find himself transformed. Overnight, Andersās skin has turned dark, and the reflection in the mirror seems a stranger to him. At first he shares his secret only with Oona, an old friend turned new lover. Soon, reports of similar events begin to surface. Across the land, people are awakening in new incarnations, uncertain how their neighbors, friends, and family will greet them.Some see the transformations as the long-dreaded overturning of the established order that must be resisted to a bitter end. In many, like Andersās father and Oonaās mother, a sense of profound loss and unease wars with profound love. As the bond between Anders and Oona deepens, change takes on a different shading: a chance at a kind of rebirth--an opportunity to see ourselves, face to face, anew.
Ā
In Mohsin Hamidās ālyrical and urgentā prose (O Magazine),Ā The Last White ManĀ powerfully uplifts our capacity for empathy and the transcendence over bigotry, fear, and anger it can achieve.
