Literary Nonfiction. African American Studies. "TWIN OF BLACKNESS is a culturally important memoir that traces an artist's evolution in the post-civil rights era, a literary odyssey that comes triumphantly to rest in a humanity that transcends small- spirited notions about race. Clifford Thompson is simply one of the wisest, warmest, and most trustworthy essayists writing today."--Charles Johnson, National Book Award winner and author of Middle Passage and Being and Race
