• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Salacious but endearing, APT 202 is written with such visual vigor that you are entranced from the first line. The characters, their thoughts and actions, leap from the page and strangle your thoughts. However, you are not left breathless. The author resuscitates you with a literary agility that is all his own. "APT 202 is a character-driven assault on our decisions and the consequences that ensue,'' said Barbee. "It is a testament to the capitol city and its inhabitants." Keisha and Antonio, along with a host of friends and family, take you through Chocolate City in a way that¿s much different from the tourism guides. This is DC as they live it. This foray into novel writing is uniquely Keith Barbee. Overrun with pop culture references and mired in materialism, this is exactly what you would expect from a Tastemaker. However, Barbee knows how to tell a story- A good story.

Autorenporträt

KEITH BARBEE, born in Ripley, Tenn, is the NEW VOICE OF LITERATURE. Barbee is truly a product of 'the village.' Having been raised primarily by his maternal grandparents, he also was influenced by his mother and a myriad of aunts, cousins, and other grandparents. His Papa Smurf is how he would address his grandfather. A grandfather who introduced him to the written word and storytelling early on. Barbee writes in 'layman's terms' which suggests that his storytelling ability is void of bourgeoisie, fluff, and filler. He and his writing are the real deal. He narrates the lives of everyman. His work has appeared in The Meter, Grooveline, and The Tennessee Tribune newspapers. He has also written for Venus, GBF, Sheen and Xclusive magazines. He serves as Editor-At-Large for the latter. Not foreign to cyberspace, he has also pegged articles for www.flowinsiders.com, www.houseofchapple.com and the digital companion to Xclusive, www.xclusivemag.com. KEITH BARBEE is the author of the poetry books The Hot Life and Exposed. And the novel APT 202. His second novel, the semi-autobiographical Three Sisters and the journal, On This Christian Journey are forthcoming.
