About the author

Nkosi Ife Bandele tells stories. He writes for periodicals, stage, TV, and film. His extended fiction, The Ape is Dead!, The Beast, and Scott Free are published by Crimson Cloak Publishing. His short fiction, including the outrageous “Itty Bitty Titty Committee,” appears in Akashic Book’s Terrible Twosdays series.
Nkosi’s latest extended fictional work, Professor Marvel, explores the life of a popular black male professor at a predominantly white, women’s college who freaks when a radical feminist compares him to the Kansas charlatan turned Wizard of Oz. His dubiousness is confirmed when he succumbs to the charms of a student, an aspiring fashion model. Meanwhile, he keeps a secret affair with an older feminist colleague. The she-it hits the fan when her estranged husband becomes jealous and challenges him to a fistfight. Certain he’ll be blamed when the old man’s pacemaker explodes, Professor Marvel takes flight. His prior indiscretion eventually catches up to him when he discovers the fashion model exploits a sex tape as her steppingstone to fame.
The BlackList says, “Professor Marvel is thought-provoking read that keeps the reader in anticipation of what's to come over the course of the story."
Nkosi's website, including his blog That N-Word’s Crazy!, is eshubandele.com. Also check him out on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2016Entertaining and hilarious!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2016I really enjoyed this book. It's a wonderful, honest description of student life, from the point of view of a young male. As a female I found it eye-wateringly revelationary in a general sense (my God, it really IS all they think about ... "Booty Duty" wtf!) and fascinating from a social-history point of view. A great read that ought to be on a compulsory list somewhere, for the sheer amount of insight it affords on many levels.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2021I really enjoyed the book. The narrator was honest and funny. Definitely a must read.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2016Excellent book!
