The protagonist of Percival Everett's puckish new novel is a brilliant professor of mathematics who goes by Wala Kitu. (Wala, he explains, means "nothing" in Tagalog, and Kitu is Swahili for "nothing.") He is an expert on nothing. That is to say, he is an expert, and his area of study is nothing, and he does nothing about it.

Percival Everett's The Trees is a must-listen that opens with a series of brutal murders in the rural town of Money, Mississippi. When a pair of detectives from the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation arrive, they meet expected resistance from the local sheriff, his deputy, the coroner, and a string of racist White townsfolk. The murders present a puzzle, for at each crime scene there is a second dead body: that of a man who resembles Emmett Till.

Qui est James ? Le jeune esclave illettré qui a fui la plantation ? Ou cet homme cultivé et plein d’humour qui se joue des Blancs ? Percival Everett transforme le personnage de Jim créé par Mark Twain, dans son roman Huckleberry Finn , en un héros inoubliable. James prétend souvent ne rien savoir, ne rien comprendre ; en réalité, il maîtrise la langue et la pensée comme personne. Ce grand roman d’aventures, porté par les flots tourmentés du Mississippi, pose un regard incisif entièrement neuf sur la question du racisme.

Jim spielt den Dummen. Es wäre zu gefährlich, wenn die Weißen wüssten, wie intelligent und gebildet er ist. Als man ihn nach New Orleans verkaufen will, flieht er mit Huck gen Norden in die Freiheit. Auf dem Mississippi jagt ein Abenteuer das nächste: Stürme, Überschwemmungen, Begegnungen mit Betrügern und Blackface-Sängern. Immer wieder muss Jim mit seiner Schwarzen Identität jonglieren, um sich und seinen jugendlichen Freund zu retten. Percival Everetts »James« ist einer der maßgeblichen Romane unserer Zeit, eine unerhörte Provokation, die an den Grundfesten des amerikanischen Mythos rüttelt.

An epistolary novel, A History follows the letters of loose-cannon congressional office workers, insane interns at a large New York publishing house, and disturbed publishing executives, along with homicidal rival editors, kindly family friends, and an aspiring author named Septic.

Une série de meurtres brutaux secoue la petite ville de Money, Mississippi : des hommes blancs sont retrouvés atrocement mutilés. Mais ces meurtres recèlent un mystère, car sur chaque scène de crime on retrouve un second cadavre qui ressemble comme deux gouttes d’eau à Emmett Till, un garçon noir lynché dans la même ville en 1955. Lorsqu’un duo d’enquêteurs tout en second degré est dépêché sur les lieux, il se heurte à la résistance attendue du shérif, de ses adjoints, du légiste et d’une cohorte de Blancs tous plus racistes les uns que les autres. Les deux agents spéciaux pensent avoir affaire à des crimes punitif.
