"Unlock the secrets of the "orthography of the wake" with In the Wake, a groundbreaking work that interrogates literary, visual, cinematic, and quotidian representations of Black life.

Activating multiple registers of "wake", Christina Sharpe illustrates how Black lives are swept up and animated by the afterlives of slavery, and delineates what survives despite insistent violence and negation.

This innovative theory and method of reading the metaphors and materiality of "the wake" offers a way forward for artistic production, resistance, consciousness, and possibility for living in diaspora.

Don't miss out on this powerful and thought-provoking work that will change the way you see Black life and the world around you."
