À propos de cet audio
Travelling into the backwoods of West Virginia to write a piece on the unveiling of the new John Henry postage stamp and the ensuing John Henry Days festival, J. continues his nearly record-setting, three-month junket binge. But when he begins to choke on a piece of prime rib at a press dinner, shadows from the past are summoned forth and he leaves the mountain a changed man.
Colson Whitehead is the author of the critically acclaimed, QPB New Voices Award-winning novel, The Intuitionist. Narrated by Peter Jay Fernandez, John Henry Days is both an ingenious retelling of the American legend of John Henry and a fascinating look into the world of contemporary journalism.

Love Colston but…
Colston is a great writer and the traditional continues here but…. The story is a mix of lore and history but plays out as a grievance. It doesn’t deliver the magic, twist or imaginative brilliance that has earmarked his career. I kept trying to like it and failed over and over. His book on Poker is 10* this story and sorry but that was meant to cut the deck
