Memorial: A Novel

byBryan Washington

Memorial is Bryan Washington's novel of a Novel. The book builds its explanation through key episodes, competing interests, and the setting supplied by the connected fields of biography & autobiography and fiction. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning. The approach makes a specialized subject understandable without stripping away its tensions or ambiguity.
