Publisher's Synopsis

  • Three-Fifths is the launch title for Agora, the new imprint from Polis Books focused on diverse voices in crime fiction.
  • To date, Agora has received fantastic publicity, including features in Publisher's Weekly, New York Post, BookRiot and Entertainment Weekly. Commensurate to this we expect Three-Fifths to receive review and publicity attention upon publication.
  • Given the extensive coverage, we expect endorsements from major voices in both the crime fiction and literary fields.
  • The theme of a bi-racial man dealing with issues not only of his own racial identity, but white supremacy, touches a cultural nerve we expect to garner off-the-book-page coverage.
  • John Vercher has a strong literary background, and his essays on race have been featured on NPR, and also has an extensive community in the Philadelphia area, where the book is also based.
  • The author will do events in his local area, and other appropriate markets.
  • We will be extensively promoting the Agora launch list in Fall 2019 and Three-Fifths will be promoted heavily as the launch title for the list.
