melodyshobe 's review for:
This is a fascinating book told through the lens of a single object— a flour sack belonging to an enslaved person named Ashley. It’s part art history, part racial history, part generational drama and all beautifully written. It is dense— feeling like a thesis or an excellent symposium lecture— but I was enthralled and learned so much. I love the care the author took in exploring all the little details and how they speak, even now.
