Black Silk by Retha Powers

A new collection of African American fiction, BLACK SILK is filled with lush, sexy stories featuring heroines who are overwhelmingly in control of their sexual lives and unabashed about their appetites. Representing a spectrum of styles and sexual perspectives, contributors to this collection include famed authors like Breena Clarke and Lolita Files as well as exciting new voices in the African American literary scene, including Carolyn Ferrell, the winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Award. BLACK SILK is certain to follow in the footsteps of bestsellers like Erotique Noire as a new classic in African American erotica.

Retha Powers is the co-editor of This is My Best: Famous Authors Reveal Their Favorite Work and the editor of the collection Black Silk: A Anthology of African American Erotica. Her thoughts and reportage have featured in magazines like Essence, The New York Times Magazine, and Glamour. Powers graduated from Howard University with a B.A. and an M.F.A. Goddard College awarded her a B.A. in Creative Writing. She has worked in publishing for almost twenty years and is currently the Assistant Director of City College of New York's Publishing Certificate Program.
