À propos de cet audio

 Now a Hulu Original Series

“Riveting, fearless, and vividly original” (Emily St. John Mandel, New York Times bestselling author), this instant New York Times bestseller explores the tension that unfurls when two young Black women meet against the starkly white backdrop of New York City book publishing.

Twenty-six-year-old editorial assistant Nella Rogers is tired of being the only Black employee at Wagner Books. Fed up with the isolation and microaggressions, she’s thrilled when Harlem-born and bred Hazel starts working in the cubicle beside hers. They’ve only just started comparing natural hair care regimens, though, when a string of uncomfortable events elevates Hazel to Office Darling, and Nella is left in the dust.

Then the notes begin to appear on Nella’s desk: LEAVE WAGNER. NOW.

It’s hard to believe Hazel is behind these hostile messages. But as Nella starts to spiral and obsess over the sinister forces at play, she soon realizes that there’s a lot more at stake than just her career. Having joined Wagner Books to honor the legacy of Burning Heart, a novel written and edited by two Black women, she had thought that this animosity was a relic of the past. Is Nella ready to take on the fight of a new generation?

“Poignant, daring, and darkly funny, The Other Black Girl will have you stressed and exhilarated in equal measure through the very last twist” (Vulture). The perfect read for anyone who has ever felt manipulated, threatened, or overlooked in the workplace.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"King does an excellent job portraying the conflicted protagonist and is at her strongest delivering dialogue. The other narrators also are very good. This slow-building audiobook is built on psychological tension. Part suspense, part publishing industry takedown, it's both entertaining and thought-provoking."

I couldn't stop listening, I loved it so much. It is well written, well narrated, and now I plan to read the hard copy

Great read/listen

I found that the set up was far too long for the pay off. I wanted more. I think the impact of the message was blunted by the finale.

Disappointed in the ending

The build up was great but the ending was a let down and felt lazy.

Ending was disappointing

The story had such great promise and started out so well. The first half of the book read like such a great commentary on Blackness and especially on being a Black woman in the workplace. However, the second portion became this bizarre sci-fi concept and the execution was strange. The second portion was just not meshing well with the rest of the story for me. I was really disappointed with the direction the book took and it felt like the message was not the empowering or critical or engaging message that it started off as.

I loved the first half of the book and the way it depicted the complex nature of being one of the few Black women/people at work

As a POC content came off as pandering and overly stereotypical. Voice was needlessly rigid. Story was buried beneath CONSTANT clumsy attempts to center race.

Annoying
