We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Maxine Clair, whose guide to creativity, IMAGINE THIS, we published in 2014 here at Agate, where we also reissued her story collection, RATTLEBONE, and novel, OCTOBER SUITE, in ebook editions.

“It was a privilege to work with Maxine Clair, whose work and career were an inspiration to so many. She could not have been a more gracious partner, and everyone who worked with her here at Agate appreciated her professionalism and consideration,” said Doug Seibold, president of Agate.

ARCs are here! In her new and heartfelt memoir FINDING HOME, acclaimed actress and writer Denise Nicholas reflects on her six-decade career in Hollywood, and the profound loss, family secrets, and resilience that punctuated it. Her evocative storytelling not only offers a glimpse into her own remarkable life but also provides a resonant narrative of what it means to live, work, and succeed as a Black woman in America over the past half-century.
