HTML:<p><b>"<i>Riot Baby</i> bursts at the seams of story with so much fire, passion and power that in the end it turns what we call a narrative into something different altogether."—Marlon James</b></p> <p>Ella has a Thing. She sees a classmate grow up to become a caring nurse. A neighbor's son murdered in a drive-by shooting. Things that haven't happened yet. Kev, born while Los Angeles burned around them, wants to protect his sister from a power that could destroy her. But when Kev is incarcerated, Ella must decide what it means to watch her brother suffer while holding the ability wreck cities in her hands.</p> <p>Rooted in the hope that can live in anger, <i>Riot Baby</i> is as much an intimate family story as a global dystopian narrative. It burns fearlessly toward revolution and has quietly devastating things to say about love, fury, and the black American experience.</p> <p>Ella and Kev are both shockingly human and immeasurably powerful. Their childhoods are defined and destroyed by racism. Their futures might alter the world.</p> <p>"[Tochi] Onyebuchi has woven a story as uplifting as it is heartbreaking, <b>an epic ode to the future and past, tiny acts of resistance, love, and the wild unstoppable sweep of revolution</b>."—Daniel José Older</p> <p>At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.</p>.
