Cover of Ta-Nehisi Coates’ debut novel release, The Water Dancer, published by Penguin Random House, 2019.

“The masters could not bring water to boil, harness a horse, nor strap their own drawers without us. We were better than them- we had to be. Sloth was literal death for us, while for them it was the whole ambition of their lives.” -Hi

Reading The Water Dancer with Joe Morton narrating is almost a mind trip.
Was this the true ancestral origin story of Command/Papa Pope?? #TheWaterDancer #Scandal

This book is excellent. It starts of similar to the Prophets by Robert Jones Jr. But then it turns into magical realism. I really enjoyed it. I think this book is very well done but sometimes it was incredibly vague and I didn’t know what was going on. #bookreview #booksky #thewaterdancer 💙📚
