About this listen

Great Black Hope opens on Labor Day weekend in the Hamptons, when police officers descend and arrest a young Black man named Smith for cocaine possession. In the blink of an eye, his life transforms from charmed to a nightmare. As he struggles to adjust to his changed reality, while also mourning the loss of his best friend from an overdose, he confronts issues of race, class, addiction, and much more, in this propulsive, beautifully written debut novel.
