Overview
An edgy, bitingly funny debut about a queer, half-Nigerian college sophomore who, enraged and exhausted by the racism at her elite college, is determined to reveal the truth about The Unfortunatesāthe unlucky subset of Black undergrads who Just. Keep. Disappearing.
Sahara is Not Okay. Entering her sophomore year,Ā she already feels like a failure: her body is too much, her love life is nonexistent, sheās not Nigerian enough for her family, her grades are subpar, and, well, the few Black classmates she has are vanishingāor dying. Sahara herself is close to giving up: depression has been her longtime āLife Partner." She believes that this narrativeātaking the form of an irreverent, no-holds-barred āthesisā addressed to the powerful University Committee that will judge herāmay be her last chance to document the Unfortunates' experience before she joins their ranks...But maybe, just maybe, she and her complex community of BIPOC women aren't ready to go out without a fight.
