Sag Harbor: A Novel

Sag Harbor is a hilarious and supremely original novel set in the Hamptons in the 1980s, fused with a sharp look at the intersections of race and class.

Benji Cooper, one of the few Black students at an elite prep school in Manhattan, escapes to Sag Harbor every summer where he faces trials and tribulations, but also experiences moments of joy and growth.

With warm and funny writing, carefully observed details, and beautifully crafted chapters, Whitehead seems to be having the time of his life as he recounts Benji's coming-of-age story.

This novel is a must-read for anyone looking for a heartwarming and thought-provoking tale of self-discovery and friendship.
