In this powerful debut novel, William Fredrick Cooper presents a fresh perspective on relationships, shedding light on the insecurities, fears, and vulnerabilities that men try to conceal—and what can happen when they are suppressed for too long.

Just after midnight on a bitterly cold Thursday in January, William McCall is stumbling down an icy Manhattan street, wondering when things started to go wrong. As he makes his way to an empty subway station, he begins piecing together the events and relationships that have led him to this moment—alone, ashamed, and kicked out into the cold.

Realizing that he must face the past in order to restore his faith in himself, over the next six days William thinks back through the years, examining the events that led to his downward spiral. He is forced to confront memories and feelings that he has kept buried—a painful pivotal relationship, several emasculating incidents, countless ill-advised choices and mistakes, myriad insecurities and fears—and have chipped away at his sensitive, chivalrous qualities, leaving him cynical, selfish, and bitter.

A candid, cautionary tale of how a quest for romance can unintentionally transform a person into someone new, Six Days in January is an eye-opening, emotionally charged glimpse into the heart of an African-American man.

 

William Fredrick Cooper, affectionately known as “Mr. Romance,” was born in Brooklyn and raised on Staten Island in New York City. He has contributed short stories to several erotica collections, and is currently at work on his next novel. Cooper lives in the Bronx with his daughter Maranda.
