Most (not all) of his paragraphs are single beautiful sentences that purl and flow over punctuation scattered like pebbles, with repetitions and cadences that tow the reader forward, gently ... The Last White Man may lack the pixie dust of Exit West, but it's another bracing achievement from a consummate master, its silken prose breathing fresh air into fusty debates about race and identity."
