Description

Isaac's Song by Daniel Black is a poignant and emotionally exuberant novel about a young queer Black man finding his voice in 1980s Chicago. Growing up, he was conditioned to suppress his artistic pursuits and physical desires, notions that didn't align with traditional views of masculinity. As Isaac begins to carve out a life of his own, two social catalysts - the AIDS crisis and Rodney King's attack - extinguish his hard-earned joy. At a therapist's encouragement, he starts writing down his story, tapping into a creative energy that sends him on a journey back to his family, ancestral home in Arkansas, and the inherited trauma of the nation's dark past. A surprise discovery will either unlock the truths he's seeking or threaten to derail the life he's fought so hard to claim.
