Description
The Comet is a science fiction story by W. E. B. Du Bois, published in 2021. Written during his role at The Crisis magazine, it explores a catastrophic event that brings an abrupt end to white supremacy. A comet's passage over New York City sparks chaos and destruction, leaving the city frozen in time. Bank messenger Jim Davis emerges from a vault to find a desolate landscape, where toxic fumes have turned lower Manhattan into a scene of utter devastation. As he navigates this eerie world, he encounters a wealthy woman who becomes his unlikely companion in a desperate bid for survival. Their journey raises fundamental questions about human relationships and the nature of society. Mint Editions has carefully restored this pioneering work of speculative fiction, presenting it with a fresh, professionally typeset manuscript and a new cover that honors its original integrity.
