Description
Shane McCrae's Sometimes I Never Suffered is a poignant exploration of purpose and atonement, freedom and forgiveness. This powerful collection delves into the complexities of America's racial history and its own author's journey towards self-discovery.
The book follows an angel, hastily thrown together by his fellow residents of Heaven, as he plummets to Earth in his first moments of consciousness. Jim Limber, the adopted mixed-race son of Jefferson Davis, navigates the afterlife, reckoning with the nuances of his own racial identity and seeking a way forward.
Through its thought-provoking verses, Sometimes I Never Suffered imagines eternity not as an escape from the past or present, but as a reverberating record and the culmination of time's manifold potential to mend. This is a search for meaning that will resonate with readers seeking a nuanced exploration of identity, history and the human condition.
