Hailed as a masterpiece--the finest work yet by an American novelist of the first rank--THE MAN IN MY BASEMENT tells the story of a young black man who can’t find a job, drinks too much, and, worst of all, stands to lose the beautiful home that’s belonged to his family for generations. All that changes, however, when a stranger offers $50,000 to rent out the young man’s basement, and soon the two men are drawn together into circumstances so bizarre as to be almost beyond imagination.

This is a story about furkens, descendants of a branch of genus elf, who have lost their elfin powers of being able to vanish and now hide fearfully in human houses. They are sadly often mistaken for mice, although don’t smell like mice. They smell like warm apricot jam! They are “endearing, fully developed creatures,” says Horn Book. ALA Booklist adds, “A tale that will have readers clamoring for a sequel.”
