Book Riot rekommenderar böcker inspirerade av oscarsvinnande Sinners

Efter Sinners fyra Oscarsegrar för originalmanus, huvudroll, foto och musik har Book Riot återpublicerat en lista med rekommenderade böcker. Listan framhäver verk som ekar filmens teman kring Södern, vampyrism och svarta erfarenheter. Vampyrskräckfilmen, regisserad av Ryan Coogler, har fängslat publiken sedan premiären.

Sinners, Ryan Cooglers vampyrskräckfilm, vann fyra Oscars igår kväll: originalmanus, huvudroll, foto och musik. För att uppmärksamma bedriften återpublicerade Book Riot sin lista med sex böcker som fångar filmens toner av groteska, firande, förfädrade och andliga element knutna till Södern. Artikeln noterar filmens snabba grepp om publiken, med många tittare som såg den flera gånger på bio trots viss nedsättande bevakning från medier. Teman inkluderar vampyrism som metafor för konsumtionen av svarta kroppar och hoodoo-praktiker centrala för handlingen, såsom de av karaktären Annie. Filmen hämtar inspiration från bluesmusikern Robert Johnson, som ryktas ha sålt sin själ vid en vägkorsning för framgång; en memoar av hans styvsyster, Brother Robert, behandlar denna legend. Rekommenderade böcker är: The Ballad of Black Tom av Victor LaValle, en omskrivning av H.P. Lovecrafts The Horror at Red Hook; The Delectable Negro av Vincent Woodard, som utforskar konsumtion i slavkulturen; The Buffalo Hunter Hunter av Stephen Graham Jones, med vampyrism mot icke-vita populationer; Conjure Women av Afia Atakora, om hoodoo-healare före och efter inbördeskriget; Brother Robert av Annye C. Anderson med Preston Lauterbach; och serietidningen Abbott av Saladin Ahmed, Sami Kivelä och Jason Wordie, om en svart reporter som utreder mord i 1970-talets Detroit. Listan syftar till att erbjuda nya perspektiv bland andra liknande rekommendationer.
