Joseph Thomas

Grand Central Publishing
"Joseph Earl Thomas has created a narrative that reads like a request and loving demand. Sink is a new kind of memoir, remixing the best parts of the genre. Thomas uses the act and politics of oration to move us within the silences of desire. It is criminal and absolutely delicious that Sink is a literary debut."—Kiese Laymon, author of Heavy
“Thomas really does accomplish the extraordinary…[He] has constructed a sort of alchemy on the page, but one born of experience, from skill and from a trust about what will end up on the other side…perhaps one of the biggest boons of Sink is its insistence that care is, above all, shared. It is everyone’s prerogative. In this way, Thomas has earned a deep bow.”―New York Times Book Review
“A crucial, incomparable act of creation and undefeated imagination.”―Booklist
