书籍简介：Almost everything about
Wallace is at odds with the Midwestern university town where he is
working uneasily toward a biochem degree. An introverted young man from
Alabama, black and q slur, he has left behind his family without escaping
the long shadows of his childhood. For reasons of self-preservation,
Wallace has enforced a wary distance even within his own circle of
friends—some dating each other, some dating women, some feigning
straightness. But over the course of a late-summer weekend, a series of
confrontations with colleagues, and an unexpected encounter with an
ostensibly straight, white classmate, conspire to fracture his defenses
while exposing long-hidden currents of hostility and desire within their
community.

Real Life is a novel of profound and
lacerating power, a story that asks if it’s ever really possible to
overcome our private wounds, and at what cost.
