Description
The Deep by Rivers Solomon, Daveed Diggs, William Hutson, and Jonathan Snipes is a thought-provoking novella that explores the lives of a community of people who have built a society beneath the ocean's surface. Inspired by the song "The Deep" from the rap group clipping, this book delves into the complexities of memory, identity, and the weight of history. In this vivid and original tale, a young woman named Yetu holds the memories of her people, who were forcibly taken from their homes and forced to live in the ocean. As she struggles to cope with the burden of these memories, Yetu must navigate the expectations and responsibilities that come with being the keeper of her people's past. Her journey takes her to the surface, where she discovers a world she never knew existed, and must confront the challenges of reclaiming her own identity and the future of her people. This novella is a powerful exploration of the human experience, and the ways in which our past shapes our present. With its unique blend of fantasy and social science, The Deep is a compelling and thought-provoking read that will stay with you long after you finish the book.
