Title: To Repel Ghosts and Mortals too!
Review: I found To Repel Ghosts interestingly cryptic. Although Kevin Young is a fine writer whom I've favored in the past. There seems to be no growth or honesty in his writing. There are passages that are riddled with the voice of someone elses soul. It is not that of artist Jean Michele Basquiat. It is of Young trying to capture himself as something more than Young. I have seen many young writers fall into this dilema. It is unfortunate that Kevin Young try to romantazise a troubled artists life. Maybe because his own was such a privileged one.
Is the review positive or negative?
