En les narracions insaciablement imaginatives de Friday Black la lleu distopia de passat-dem\u00e0 apunta \u2013esmolada com un ganivet\u2013 cap al nostre m\u00f3n d’avui. El racisme convertit en joc, el menysteniment de les emocions, la modulaci\u00f3 de l’estat d’\u00e0nim per mitj\u00e0 de drogues, el consumisme m\u00e9s desbocat (i sagnant), la banalitzaci\u00f3 de la viol\u00e8ncia… Un m\u00f3n descarnat on, tanmateix, en la lluita dels personatges\u00a0per mantenir la seva humanitat encara traspua l’esperan\u00e7a.
Evocador de l’obra de Colson Whitehead i George Saunders \u2014de qui Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah ha rebut encesos elogis\u2014, dotat d’un gran sentit de l’espectacle narratiu i ling\u00fc\u00edstic i amb un humor gens lluny\u00e0 del de Black Mirror, Friday Black \u00e9s un llibre de relats d’\u00e8xit i que s’ha tradu\u00eft a deu lleng\u00fces. Tamb\u00e9 ha guanyat el prestigi\u00f3s premi PEN\/Jean Stein, entre altres guardons,i ha estat triat com un dels llibres de l’any per nombroses publicacions. \u00c9s, en resum, un dels llibres m\u00e9s innovadors i que han causat m\u00e9s sensaci\u00f3 recentment als Estats Units.<\/p>\n
La cr\u00edtica ha dit:
\u00abUn recull de contes potent i important i estrany i preci\u00f3s…
Un debut incre\u00efble, un que anuncia una nova i necess\u00e0ria veu americana.\u00bb
TOMMY ORANGE, The New York Times Book Review
\u00abEl talent immens d’Adjei-Brenyah fa aquests contes punyents enormement seductors, per la via d’uns personatges que es fan estimar de seguida, resoluts, carregats d’emoci\u00f3 i sentiment, capa\u00e7os de veure el m\u00f3n com un lloc bene\u00eft i male\u00eft alhora\u00bb. GEORGE SAUNDERS
\u00abCrea un microunivers en cada conte que fa saltar pels aires les nostres expectatives\u00bb. BERNARDINE EVARISTO, The Guardian
\u00abNo recordo l’\u00faltim llibre que em va emocionar, pertorbar i inspirar com ho ha fet Friday Black\u00bb. LAUREN CHRISTENSEN, The New York Times
\u00abLlegiu aquest llibre. Meravelleu-vos de la intel\u00b7lig\u00e8ncia de cadascun dels contes i el que revelen sobre el racisme, el capitalisme, la indifer\u00e8ncia i el seu abast p\u00e8rfid\u00bb. ROXANNE GAYE
