What is it with authors and using slang. Does nobody here remember 1984?

Hilariously enough, "slang" is also kind of a slang term; it stands for "pseudo language" and refers to unofficial words and phrases that are part of a subculture's vernacular.
Or, I could be making all that up. We'll never know.

The section of the book where he's using slang is done extremely purposefully. The rest of the book is written in the voice of a literature professor so it's flawless.
Fantastic book, Everett is a wonderful writer.

The book is written in the voice of a literature professor who is a drug fiend addicted to slang? That seems right up my alley

He's an unsuccessful author who writes a book filled with grotesque urban black stereotypes in an attempt to pander to the liberal publishing world who want something "real" and "street" from black authors. It's about way more than that though.
It was just adapted into a film called American Fiction but it was a weak adaption that largely missed the point. Jeffrey Wright is always excellent though.
