520 |a Percival Everett writes novels, short stories, poetry, and essays, and is one of the most prolific, acclaimed, yet under-examined African American writers working today.

Perhaps one of the most vexing problems black and white scholars have had in trying to situate Everett's work is that they have found it difficult to ""place"" him and his work within a prescribed African American lit.
