Covet

"Marvin Browns debut novel COVET is a lean, complex jigsaw of athriller, a fast-paced, contemporary parable on the psychology of race,the nature of identity and the brutal powers of memory. You will notsoon forget Russell Washington and Garrett Kale, nor the very talentedMarvin Brown. I was hooked on the very first page."
Richard Montanari, author of THE VIOLET HOUR and KISS OF EVIL

"A snappy 140-pager that reads like a dispatch from a coffee shop just outside of Hell."
The Glass Eye

"Welcome to a fascinating, chilling, tightly written psychological thriller that breaks many of the rules and explores new territory in the black mans alienation in America. Browns slim book is long on depth, ingenuity, and substance. But the books unusual style may be the most intriguing part of all. The authors nonlinear approach is reminiscent of Quentin Tarantinos groundbreaking movie Pulp Fiction."

"A psychological drama that reads like a cross between Goethes Faust and Kafkas The Metamorphosis. An interesting, imaginative first novel."
Ohioana Quarterly
