Acerca de esta escucha

A pioneering, dazzling satire about a biracial black girl from Philadelphia searching for her Jewish father in New York City.

Oreo is raised by her maternal grandparents in Philadelphia. Her black mother tours with a theatrical troupe, and her Jewish deadbeat dad disappeared when she was an infant, leaving behind a mysterious note that triggers her quest to find him. What ensues is a playful, modernized parody of the classical odyssey of Theseus with a feminist twist, immersed in seventies pop culture, and mixing standard English, black vernacular, and Yiddish with wisecracking aplomb. Oreo, our young hero, navigates the labyrinth of sound studios and brothels and subway tunnels in Manhattan, seeking to claim her birthright while unwittingly experiencing and triggering a mythic journey of self-discovery like no other.

Robin Miles does a great job with both African American and Yiddish dialects. Well worth the listen!

Excellent book, superb performance

I understand what she was trying to do, but the book was all over the place. It was like someone rattling on and on. I may finish it one day but right now I have to let it go.

All over the place

An engaging and snarky story of a young woman who is mixed race and religion - African American and Jewish. She satirizes every ethnicity. It is written in a light humorous style yet it has deep things to say about our culture(s).

A norms challenging and funny tale

Pretty hilarious. An exploration of the hybridity of identity. Told as a version of the myth of Theseus. Kind of a difficult book, but certainly worth it.

Pretty good.
