Fiction. African American Studies. Satire. In A HISTORY OF THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN PEOPLE [PROPOSED], Percival Everett and James Kincaid present a fictitious chronicle of former South Carolina Senator Strom Thrumond's desire to pen a history of African-Americans-his and his aides' belief being that he has done as much, or more, than any American to shape that history. An epistolary novel, A HISTORY follows the letters of loose-cannon Congressional office workers, insane interns, and disturbed publishing executives. "This is the funniest novel I have read in years!"-Clarence Major.
