3.5 rounding down. Don’t get me wrong, Roxane Gay is brilliant and I love her storytelling. She is relatable and brings up some interesting questions. Perhaps it’s more of a matter of expectations, but I just wish I walked away feeling like I had a bit more fresh insight on writing trauma itself as an art form.

Simplemente lo vi en scribd, vi que tenia un buen rating y decidí darle el chance y wow, la manera de Roxane de escribir me encanto como intercala su historia personal, con su vida profesional y con el caos del mundo, como a lo largo del libro utiliza tonos narrativos distintos cautivando por completo al borde de las lagrimas hasta mantenerte atento para aprender sobre escritura.

A short essay talking about how writing our trauma for healing process and writing our trauma for public consumption is different, and how the later, if not done right, could potentially harm the one with the trauma. There's some book references about biography about trauma that she thought are good, but this essay is mostly her pondering what's the best way to respectfully write our trauma for public.
