Sobre este artículo
New York: Scribner's, 2018. First edition. Hardcover. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket. In this powerful and provocative memoir, Kiese Laymon fearlessly explores what the weight of a lifetime of secrets, lies, and deception does to a black body, a black family, and a nation teetering on the brink of moral collapse. Laymon invites us to consider the consequences of living in a country wholly obsessed with progress yet wholly disinterested in the messy work of reckoning with where we've been. A personal narrative that illuminates national failures, is defiant yet vulnerable, insightful yet often comical exploration that begins with a confusing childhood, and continues through twenty-five years of haunting implosions and long reverberations. 241 pages.
