Already a book club favorite, Hunger is Erica Simone Turnipseed's captivating follow-up to A Love Noire, in which heartache fans the flames of lust when freethinking Noire and Innocent, her urbane African ex, reunite. Noire and Innocent are both having a thirtysomething crisis. A beleaguered graduate student, she's got no money, no man, and no Ph.D.—yet. His former identity as a successful investment banker and eligible bachelor has disappeared. A year of predoctoral research in Haiti leaves Noire drained. And a trip home to Cote d'Ivoire offers Innocent little more than intermittent sexual gratification. In the aftermath of 9/11, Noire and Innocent are back in New York City and find solace in each other's beds. But even that arrangement collapses under the weight of Innocent's revelation that he has unfinished business in Africa. For Noire and Innocent, patching together their unraveling lives becomes an exercise in hope and humility. With Hunger, Turnipseed lives up to the promise of A Love Noire, maturing into a writer who fearlessly explores the intersection of sex, love, identity, and loss in a cross-cultural context.
