                      It feels as though the city has lived a hundred lives since I have been here. It swings wildly between being a place the rest of the country looks on as a promise and being denigrated, the stuff of feverish dreams about lawlessness and unruly desire. Even though I have lived here for a little over half my life, I don’t often write about New York when I write fiction. It feels like trying to describe a sunset or the taste of chocolate: an experience so many have already written about, and written so well, that even naming it feels cliché. It’s rare to find books that make me look at the city as something new.

                     <em>
                      came out last summer and was on the National Book Award for Fiction longlist; McSweeney’s released the paperback this fall. It takes place in the last moments of consciousness of Ezra, a queer, nonbinary bookseller who has set themselves on fire at a protest in front of Trump Tower in New York. The writing is as jarring as that act, if only because Sam Sax manages to make the last moments of Ezra’s life feel vibrant and funny and loving and melancholy and questioning all at once. Ezra’s past comes through in short dispatches, woven with the voices of their parents, the family lore of their ancestors, and meditations on their Judaism and faith in liberatory politics. Why Ezra has chosen such a violent and desperate act is the question at the center of this book, but it is also in Ezra’s last flashes of consciousness that we get to see the beauty of the city, even in this deeply broken world. “It’s impossible not to feel how small we are below these buildings, beside all this endless traffic,” Ezra contemplates at the start of the book. “A pigeon with one fucked-up foot is hobbling on the sidewalk in a loose infinity sign. When the sun hits its neck just right at least one thing is expensive and not dying.”

                     Early on in Angela Flournoy’s extraordinary new novel,
                     <em>
                      The Wilderness,
                     </em>
                     January, a 29-year-old Black woman cohabitating with her ambitious boyfriend, is contemplating blowing up her life. Already deeply depressed, January has just found out she is pregnant. She has known for a long time that her boyfriend, Morris, whom she has been with since college, is not the right partner for her. “The WORST seemed to find her more frequently when she was with him,” Flournoy writes. “She’d be sitting next to him on the couch, reading on her phone while he watched TV … and she would feel like dying. All of a sudden miserable. Maybe he’d be passionately talking about something … and she’d only half listen, scrolling through articles, bookmarking them for later. He’d notice her inattention and threaten, ‘I can stop talking’ and she’d say, ‘No, go on, I’m listening’ but she wouldn’t even look up from her phone. Then she’d feel guilty and very, very low. … Better to be alone, she’d concluded. Better to crawl into some tight space and be still, like a cockroach.”

                   <p style="margin:0;font-size:16px;mso-line-height-alt:16.8px">

                     January is maybe not in her right mind, but her profound sense of dislocation is familiar. To be a Black millennial means you have lived through the world ending at least seven times since your teens: 9/11, the Iraq War, Katrina, the financial crisis of 2008, the white rage of Charlottesville and Dylann Roof and Buffalo, the great racial reckoning of 2020 and the white backlash to it that is only just heating up in 2025, and Gaza, whose imperial boomerang is headed straight for us, if history is to be believed. Like our ancestors, we have watched worlds burn over and over. But unlike them, we are doing so without the physical location of Blackness. Desegregation, rampant gentrification, and the loss of Black homeownership means that we are the first generation to be experiencing Blackness as profound dislocation—but also old enough to remember and be in relation to people who were deeply rooted.

                    How we respond to all of this is varied. Some of us, like our non-Black millennial counterparts, are obsessed with fantasies of returning to the land. I am one of them; my very first job when I moved to New York was running a farmers’ market and starting a community garden in Bed-Stuy. Others are attempting to build wealth out of it. What does not get discussed is the profound rage and grief that all of this causes. A new parent friend sat on my couch the other day. She was born and raised in Bedford-Stuyvesant, but she’s being priced out. She was scanning Zillow listings in majority-Black cities as our kids played. She is an artist who has examined gentrification for the past decade, and she can’t stay in the place that she makes art about. “It’s the rage that’s so surprising,” she tells me. She catches her own throat, as if the anger is living there. “It’s just so much rage about losing your home.”

                    articulates this rage. When I read it, it felt like it was written for my friend on the couch. But it is also the yearning and nostalgia all at once. Its story spans L.A., California, Harlem, France, and other places, as the group of friends at its center attempt to find some sort of resting place. No one is rooted. So how do you build the community that has historically sustained Black women, has led to our survival in a world where we have never been able to trust institutions or authorities to work for our best interests? The women of
                    <em>
                     The Wilderness
                    </em>
                    turn this question over and over, and because Flournoy is a novelist, there are no easy answers. What comes through when reading this book is the existential question of connection, of what it might mean to know another person, and if that terrifying and exhilarating act is even possible. But
                    <em>
                     The Wilderness
                    </em>
                    isn’t a dour novel. The beauty of Flournoy’s writing (a beloved grandfather has “butter colored” skin and an Instagram post is “zebra-print-manicured fingers around a shot glass half full of clear liquid”) and the emotional striving of its characters make it the type of book you immediately want to start rereading as soon as you finish.

                      For this newsletter, we will ask writers to share a space where they wrote something beautiful. It can be their regular writing spot or an unexpected place of inspiration. This week’s writer is Benedict Nguyễn, whose debut novel,
                     </em>
                     Hot Girls With Balls,
                     <em>
                      is a sports satire about two trans women navigating a complicated romance full of jealousy and betrayal as they compete on rival pro men’s volleyball teams and publicize their relationship for clout. Below, Nguyễn shares more about how this novel about the love of the game came to be.
