The White Boy Shuffle is the 1996 first novel of poet Paul Beatty.[1] A satiric coming-of-age tale following the life of poet, basketball star, and self-described “Negro Demagogue” Gunnar Kaufman, it has been noted for its postmodern treatment of African-American gender and sexuality in addition to race.
