As a top-flight postmodern novelist and feisty cultural critic, Reed consistently challenges our status quo sociopolitical arrangements., One of the most inventive and prolific of contemporary American writers . . . Reed's prose style resembles the youthful Ali's ring style. It is unorthodox, brash, yet controlled., As a top-flight postmodern novelist and feisty cultural critic, Reed consistently challenges our status quo sociopolitical arrangements.-The Dallas Morning News, The novel [ Conjugating Hindi ] is what some academics have dubbed a trickster text, a text informed by the mischievous, shape-shifting, slippery figure of the trickster, found in folklore throughout the world. Implicit in Reed's formal style, as well as his content, is the trickster disregard for caste of any kind. Heedless of boundaries and resistant to being pinned down or hemmed in, the novel is driven almost entirely by Reed's deep, free-wheeling curiosity about why things are the way they are in regard to the use of the model minority myth against Black communities....As the United States's ideals come under increasing attack, we need more flame-throwers like septuagenarian Ishmael Reed -- more fighters, more tricksters, more eagle-eyed observers with an incendiary spirit, more dazzlingly original artist-writers -- willing to defy what is permissible to say, willing to catch it on all sides, and willing to run over boundaries of all kinds into genuinely new or neglected territory., His own groundbreaking literary output over six decades, in multiple languages and every form--essays, fiction, poetry, film, even editorial cartoons--has infected a generation of artists., His own groundbreaking literary output over six decades, in multiple languages and every form--essays, fiction, poetry, film, even editorial cartoons--has infected a generation of artists.-The Paris Review

Synopsis
California is still the world's biggest hideout. The only thing more western is the Pacific Ocean, where, if the Big One happens, California might find a home at the bottom. One of those hiding out is Peter Bowman, a former army brat, and lecturer at Woodrow Wilson Community College, who is being hunted for a quality most men would crave. But for Bowman, nicknamed Boa, it has become burdensome. When an opportunity comes, he has to choose between becoming financially solvent or exposing himself to his pursuers. Along the way, he runs into some memorable characters both in reality and in his dreams, including Ishmael Reed. In Ishmael Reed's Conjugating Hindi , stories, histories and myths of different cultures are mixed and sampled. Modern issues like gentrification addressed. It is the closest that a fiction writer has gotten to the hip-hop form on the page. Once again, Ishmael Reed has pioneered a new form. If his first novel, The Free-Lance Pallbearers , was an early Afro-Futurist novel, Mumbo Jumbo recognized as "a graphic novel before we used the term" (according to Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Margo Jefferson), Yellow Back Radio Broke Down Blazing Saddles 's "important precursor," Flight To Canada his "Neo Slave Narrative," a concept that he coined- Conjugating Hindi is his global novel. One that crosses all borders.
