Writing to Save a Life: The Louis Till File by John Edgar Wideman

5.0

I wanted to like this more--I love speculation within historical research essays, but perhaps I'm now tired of it. But went back to the beginning and got stopped cold. It is a quirky, painful book, a reckoning with the horrors of racism, and ultimately deeply personal, and so it sticks. Perhaps read Kaplan's the Interpreter too.
