Content warning Spoiler about "Jackal"
@Tak@reading.taks.garden The blurb reminds me a bit of
book.dansmonorage.blue/book/90243/s/jackal
Although that's not as clear from the beginning. And Jackal is more obviously about anti-black racism.
Content warning Discussion of overall themes
@bremner@book.dansmonorage.blue I guess most things set in the southern US will have some level of themes around antiblackness, particularly when the setting is early 20th century. In Revelators, it's not so much a focus of the plot as it seems to be in Jackal (judging from the blurb alone), although it is an auxiliary theme.
