Let The Dead Bury Their Dead by Randall Kenan
A lyrical, deeply humane collection of interconnected stories set in a small North Carolina town, following Black characters—often queer—as they confront family secrets, faith, memory, and the legacies of violence and silence; the prose blends plainspoken realism with moments of the uncanny, illuminating community life, moral struggle, and the search for identity and belonging in a place shaped by history and prejudice.
