This book explores a lot of very powerful themes which are very important to discuss but it's very spoon feed-y. I read this for a class, hence my low score regarding the ability to analyze anything. It's short and didactic and I would recommend it to someone who knows nothing about diasporic or Black literature, but it's not amazing.
