5.0

Viscerally brutal and painful to read, yet beautifully written. Especially the complete dissociation of the narrator with her body is extremely jarring. It's a haunting account of the effects of prejudice and discrimination have on the mind and body and clearly shows the pervasive nature of racism in our society.
