A singular achievement, Ordinary Notes explores profound questions about loss and the shapes of Black life that emerge in the wake. In a series of 248 notes that gather meaning as we read them, Christina Sharpe skillfully weaves artifacts from the past―public ones alongside others that are poignantly personal―with present realities and possible futures, intricately constructing an immersive portrait of everyday Black existence. The themes and tones that echo through these pages―sometimes about language, beauty, memory; sometimes about history, art, photography, and literature―always attend, with exquisite care, to the ordinary-extraordinary dimensions of Black life.
