The Harlem Trilogy comes to a thrilling close. We’re excited to have signed first editions of Cool Machine by Colson Whitehead- his dazzling new novel set in a changing, complicated New York City of the 1980s. With Ray Carney and Pepper back for one final ride, Whitehead delivers the sharp prose, unforgettable characters, and layered storytelling readers have come to expect from the two-time Pulitzer Prize winner.

Signed first editions never stay on our shelves for long. Stop by Bear Pond Books to grab your copy while they last.

We are open everyday from 8am to 9pm!
