Amazon.com description: Product Description: Exploring what it means to be "young, black and talented" in America--and the high cost of teetering precariously between two separate worlds--Mabry examines the twentysomething experience, and chronicles the rise of a young black man--from his ghetto childhood through his Stanford education to his emergence as one of Newsweek's bright, young stars.
