An excerpt of John Henry Days by Colson Whitehead. (New York: Anchor Books, 2001, p. 27). Dave Brown's byline is a roach whose gradual infestation of the world's print media can only be sketchily documented. First sightings of the scourge can be traced to the late 1960s; numerous samples from the creature's spoor have been collected from the concert reviews section of Crawdaddy . The counterculture, it is hypothesized, proved an abundant food source for the insect, which seemed to thrive on the scraps of the new pop culture, insinuating itself behind the baseboards of Rolling Stone and beneath the refrigerators of alternative weeklies. The organism traveled to new publishing empires by stowing away in the cargo holds of spectacle, a survival instinct that served it well in the following decade when a threefold increase in the number of print venues provided ample nesting opportunities.

    Extractions: As Whitehead explores the parallels between the lives of these two men, and between the Industrial Age, which literally killed John Henry, and the Digital Age, which is destroying J. Sutter's soul, he also adds multiple dimensions to the myth of the steel-driving man. John Henry Days is a novel of extraordinary scope and mythic power that juxtaposes history with popular culture, the blatant bigotry of the past with the more insidious racism of the present, and laugh-out-loud humor with unforgettable poignancy.
