Publisher's Synopsis
Author Kelly Morgan makes a bold entrance into the literary world with You Sound White-a novel that will spark conversations, challenge perspectives, and leave a lasting impact.
At its heart is Tallulah, an ambitious African-American writer struggling to make her mark five years after college. Juggling three jobs just to stay afloat, she has spent her life being judged-not only by the color of her skin but by the way she speaks. Her world takes an unexpected turn when she befriends Lily, a homeless woman with a past that is anything but ordinary. As Tallulah unravels Lily's story, she finds her own life illuminated in ways she never anticipated, forcing her to confront long-held truths about identity, acceptance, and belonging.
With razor-sharp dialogue and unforgettable characters, You Sound White peels back the layers of societal expectations and self-discovery. Kelly J. Morgan writes with the confidence of a literary veteran, delivering a debut that is as thought-provoking as it is compelling.
This is more than a novel-it's a conversation. And Kelly Morgan is here to make sure it's heard.
