ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Raven Leilani's novel, Luster, tells the story of a young Black woman navigating her life and relationships in New York City. The protagonist, a struggling artist, becomes involved in a complex affair with an older white man, which forces her to confront issues of race, class, and her own desires. As the narrative unfolds, she also forms unexpected bonds with the man’s wife and daughter, leading to a complicated web of relationships that challenge traditional notions of intimacy and rivalry. The novel delves into themes of identity, power, and the complexities of human connection, often through the lens of art, sex, and the body. The story is a raw and honest portrayal of a woman trying to find her place in the world while grappling with her past and present.
