astrangewind's review against another edition
5.0
Although fictional, these stories are devastatingly real. Despite larger events occurring during the time periods of these stories, such as Ferguson, the characters are not defined by them; they have their own lives and worries that are influenced, sure, but not overwhelmed by such events. Being arrested as a political prisoner for advocating for another or a general air of racism - life and heartbreak and suffering still go on. These stories are just a peek into the character's lives, as though the reader can only ever witness a glimpse of who they are, get to know them for only a few pages, watch them fail and learn and hurt.
