Endowed, a comic novel

By Jon Woodson

"Mammy~Diva Theory" is the peculiar career path to money and success for an ambitious English professor at one of the nation's most prestigious HBCUs (historically Black colleges and universities). But first the professor has to raise millions of dollars for an endowed chair in a department that has been sidelined in the competition for student happiness. Endowed, a comic novel is a cultural pi?ata of thought experiments, government agencies, urban novels, quantum information, folklore, and celebrities that explodes the falsehoods of Black higher education. Assisted by a globe hopping erotomaniac narratologist, a calculating Chinese beauty, and a gossiping sibyl, Dr. Radley Transuranium cunningly probes the Black community for a willing sugar daddy. Dangerously funny, self-mocking, intellectually daring, and always on the verge of savagery, Endowed explores places in America that previously have been invisible for good reasons.
