A History of My Brief Body by Billy-Ray Belcourt
challenging

- Honestly read "thesaltiestlibrarian"s 2 star review. It encapsulates most of what I was thinking while trying to read this
- As they^ say, I am also not critiquing someones personal story and lived experiences
- but this was a little beautiful and largely confusing
- so many run on sentences and you need a dictionary to read them
- also the various critiques and issues make so much more sense when you realize he was writing about youth/early 20s experiences that all happened relatively recently and published in his early/mid 20s.
