The in-betweens : a lyrical memoir

Loeb, Davon (author.).

Summary: The In-Betweens tells the story of a biracial boy becoming a man, all the while trying to find himself, trying to come to terms with his white family, and trying to find his place in American society. A rich narrative in the tradition of Justin Torres's 'We the Animals' and Bryan Washington's 'Memorial', Davon Loeb's memoir is relevant to the country's current climate and is part of the necessary rewrite of the nation's narrative and identity"--Back cover.
