Cord Jefferson's acclaimed directorial debut is a satire around racial stereotypes in literature in this hilarious comedy drama .Thelonious 'Monk' Ellison is a struggling Black novelist, continually flabbergasted by feedback from white editors, repeatedly asking for a ‘Black book’. He’s frustrated by the Black stories he sees routinely published.
Tired of reductive views of Blackness, Monk sets about writing a novel which parodies them. After being shocked to discover that there is interest in publishing the novel, he continues to be floored by the subsequent success amongst critics and audiences.
