By Jess Row

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. Your Face In Mine by Jess Row tells the story of Martin Wilkinson, who goes through the process of race reassignment from white to Black, exploring racial alienation and the nature of belonging. 

What Brit Bennett Says: “This novel follows a man who discovers that an old friend has undergone surgery in order to change his race. It’s a provocative book that tackles questions about racial identity and choice..”

What They Say: “Furiously smart... takes readers on a zesty, twisty, sometimes uncomfortable ride” – Publishers Weekly 

Available on Waterstones, and Barnes & Noble
