The Man Who Lived Underground by Richard Wright

4.0

This book is devastating. It is so good yet heartbreaking. It puts me in the mind of Ellison's Invisible Man. The book explores the disposability of Blackness and Black people to society at large. It delves into how the system grinds Black people to dust with a capriciousness that is as careless as it is cruel. Highly recommend. 4½ out of 5 stars.
