Some of Them Will Carry Me

Giada Scodellaro
3.65/5 (181 ratings)
Giada Scodellaro’s debut is a boldly original collection of stories ranging in length, style, and tone—a collage of social commentary, surrealism, recipes, folklore, and art—that centers Black women in moments of imminent change. This is writing grounded in observation, bordering on the voyeuristic and saturated with detail: a child’s legs bent upon the small bosom of their mother, three-piece suits floating in a river, a man holding a rotting banana during sex, a woman walking naked through a tunnel. In language that is both lyrical and spare, the diverse stories in Some of Them Will Carry Me together deconstruct intimacy while building a surprising, unnerving new reality of language, culture, and loss.
