Order The Seven Daughters of Dupree Today!
This week on Black & Published, Nikesha speaks with Ashton Lattimore, author of the novel, Runner.
The novel explores prohibition era life on Martha’s Vineyard and the burgeoning cultural force that became the Harlem Renaissance between two women who will do anything to achieve their dreams, including risking their own lives.
In our conversation, Ashton discusses why she enjoys exploring the full tapestry of the Black experience through highlighting class differences and the role respectability plays in keeping the main characters tethered to what they don’t want.
