"Thelonious 'Monk' Ellison's writing career has stalled because his work isn't deemed 'Black enough.' Monk, a writer and English professor, writes a satirical novel under a pseudonym, aiming to expose the publishing world's hypocrisies. The book's immediate success forces him to get deeper enmeshed in his assumed identity and challenges his closely-held worldviews."—Swank Motion Pictures Inc.
