Reviews
"A very moving, intensely fascinating literary biography from an extraordinary writer. Thoroughly admirable candor and luminous stylistic precision; the artist as a young man and a memorable picture of an age."--William Gibson "Absolutely central to any consideration of black manhood. Delany's vision of the necessity for total social and political transformation is revolutionary."--Hazel Carby " The Motion of Light in Water captures, as if in a time capsule, what it was like to be a young, gifted person of color coming to adulthood from roughly 1956 to 1966. Delany's experiences show us that the 'past' is never as simple or as safe as some would like to believe."-- American Literary History "The prose of The Motion of Light in Water often has the shimmering beauty of the title itself. This book is invaluable gay history."-- Inches Magazine
Synopsis
Winner of the Hugo Award for Non-fiction The unexpurgated edition of the award-winning autobiography Born in New York City's black ghetto Harlem at the start of World War II, Samuel R. Delany married white poet Marilyn Hacker right out of high school. The interracial couple moved into the city's new bohemian quarter, the Lower East Side, in summer 1961. Through the decade's opening years, new art, new sexual practices, new music, and new political awareness burgeoned among the crowded streets and cheap railroad apartments. Beautifully, vividly, insightfully, Delany calls up this era of exploration and adventure as he details his development as a black gay writer in an open marriage, with tertiary walk-ons by Bob Dylan, Stokely Carmichael, W. H. Auden, and James Baldwin, and a panoply of brilliantly drawn secondary characters., Samuel Delany is a science fiction writer, teacher and recipient of the William Whitehead Memorial Award for a lifetime's contribution to lesbian and gay culture. His autobiography focuses on his life in New York's lower east side in the 1960s and his development as a black gay writer in an open interracial marriage. The original edition, published
