| BLACK & WHITE |
| Lewis Shiner ( - ) http://www.lewisshiner.com |
The first Fiction Liberation Front Creative Commons licensed novel.
"Lewis Shiner's latest, Black & White, is killer. Strong characters, suspenseful situations, and tremendous insight. A novel that doesn't flinch from social issues, and is so gracefully written it makes you want to weep. Should not be missed. Lewis Shiner is the real deal, and this is his finest work."
--Joe R. Lansdale
