'This is a mesmerising book, full of story, truth, pain, lyricism, humour and astonishment: the stuff of a difficult life, fully lived, and masterfully transformed into art' Salman Rushdie, author of The Satanic Verses
'Survival Math tells the story of a young man and a way of life lived against staggering odds; Mitchell Jackson shows us his youth in Portland with an unforgettable mix of sharp humour, wide interrogation and indelible tragedy' Piper Kerman, author of Orange Is the New Black
'Mitchell S. Jackson's insights into how black men survive become insights of everyone's survival' Terrance Hayes, author of To Float in the Space Between
'I had the feeling while reading Survival Math that I'd never read anything quite like it before. It's intimate and wise, poignant and compassionate, redemptive and raw. You have to read this beautiful book' Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild
'Relentlessly clear-eyed and virtuosic, Survival Math offers revelation after revelation; in the end, it remakes our understanding of the world and those in it' Jesmyn Ward, author of Sing, Unburied, Sing
'Mitchell Jackson's Survival Math is riveted by his exacting and tender calculus of each subject's depth and humanity. Each hustle, dodge and scramble we witness in these pages is anchored in the turbulent sea of American history. Jackson's musings skilfully illuminate the bloodlines, both inherited and earned, that pulse through the body of America's gang-graffitied carceral state' Tyehimba Jess, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Olio
