In a grubby antiques shop on the outskirts of Paris, Grace restores bric-a-brac, mends teapots, resets gems. She calls herself Julie, says she's from California, and slips back to a rented room at night. From an anonymous Internet café she checks the website of her hometown paper. Back in Garland, Tennessee, two young men are about to be paroled. Both have served time for a crime about which Grace knows a great deal. Their daring escapade went bad, but not before Grace made it onto a plane?contraband in her carry-on?and began methodically disassembling the known facts of her life. Now she knows that somehow, a piece of her past will find her. As the story unfolds, taking us from small-town USA to the heights and depths of the art scene in New York and Europe, we learn who Grace has been: a girl with a messy, broken home life and a knack for making herself lovable?until she comes face-to-face with what she actually wants, and everything falls apart. And so begins a cat-and-mouse waiting game, a tale of lies and deception, desperate stakes, and dual identities. Mesmerizing, atmospheric, and psychologically nuanced, UNBECOMING reinvents the heist plot and takes up the making of a femme fatale?this time, from a woman's point of view. Rebecca Scherm's novel is truly a brilliant debut, with echoes of classics from Hitchcock and Highsmith but written with the subtlety and precision of the best contemporary fiction. [From the back cover] From the first page, you know Rebecca Scherm is the real thing. UNBECOMING is an assured exploration of the intricately intense, risky processes that go into creating identity?and into dismantling it (TANA FRENCH). Rebecca Scherm?s extraordinarily confident voice and style, this novel's depth of detail?great characters and a terrifically engaging plot?are a sheer delight to read. There is something very fresh and captivating about this book, and best of all I had no idea what was going to happen from one page to the next (KATE ATKINSON). Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. As featured by The Daily Show, NPR, PBS, CBC, Time, VIBE, Entertainment Weekly and Well-Read Black GirlIncluded in Foreword Reviews Best Books of 2019, Entrepreneur magazine's Best Books of 2019 for Entrepreneurs and The Stack Podcast's 10 Favorite Reads of 2019.A New York Times Editor's Choice selectionShortlisted for the Museum of African American History Stone Book AwardIn eight highly praised treatises on beauty, media, money, and more, Tressie McMillan Cottom award-winning professor and acclaimed author of Lower Ed is unapologetically thick: deemed 'thick where I should have been thin, more where I should have been less'. McMillan Cottom refuses to shy away from blending the personal with the political, from bringing her full self and voice to the fore of her analytical work. She embraces her venerated role as a purveyor of wit, wisdom, and Black Twitter snark about all that is right and much that is wrong with this thing we call society.This bold compendium, likely to find its place on shelves alongside Lindy West, Rebecca Solnit, and Maggie Nelson, dissects everything from beauty to Obama to pumpkin spice lattes. Yet Thick will also fill a void on those very shelves: a modern black American female voice waxing poetic on self and society, serving up a healthy portion of clever prose and southern aphorisms in a style uniquely her own.Thick cements McMillan Cottom's position as a public thinker capable of shedding new light on what the 'personal essay' can do. She turns her chosen form into a showcase for her critical dexterity, investigating everything from Saturday Night Live, LinkedIn, and BBQ Becky to sexual violence, infant mortality, and Trump rallies.'Thick is sure to become a classic of black intellectualism.' The New York Times Book Review'Cottom's intersectionality is merely the work of a writer seeing the world clearly and deeply, and connecting the dots in fresh and revealing ways.' Chicago Tribune'Incisive, witty, and provocative essays.the collection showcases McMillian Cottoms wisdom and originality and amply fulfils her aim of telling powerful stories that become a problem for power' Publishes Weekly, starred review'The meshing of the personal and political and the author's take-no-prisioners attitude makes these essays sizzle.' Kirkus Reviews'To say this collection is transgressive, provocative, and brilliant is simply to tell you the truth. Thick is a necessary work and a reminder that Tressie McMillan Cottom is one of the finest public intellectuals writing today.' Roxane Gay, author of Hunger and Bad Feminist "In these eight . explorations on beauty, media, money, and more, Tressie McMillan Cottom--award-winning professor and . author of Lower Ed--embraces her . role as a purveyor of wit, wisdom, and Black Twitter snark about all that is right and much that is wrong with this thing we call society"--Dust jacket flap.
