«you just got weezered» is not enough so…

me n tha gang

I picked up Lady El again, its a first novel by a white dude and the co-author he owes his career to, Daina Graziunas.

The book is from 1991 and its about a poor black office cleaner who dies in an accident and her brain is used by a researcher to power a supercomputer. She is become the internet.

The AAVE is not over the top but it is how she speaks; i suspect Graziunas rewrote all her dialog, which is most of the book. At first i was like ::cringe:: but the thing is, as cheesy as this sci fi romp is, it’s also a time capsule of AAVE in 1991. Which, like, was such a time in black literature.

So im appreciating this pulp novel as existing in a similar space to fanfic - sci-fi that speaks truths that literary fic feared to tread. I do belive that is what we call literary merit.

Also it’s a YA book. Don’t let nobody tell you books “for kids” dont matter. Sometimes they matter so so much.
