Citizen: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine

4.0

An evocative collection of prose, poetry, and artwork about blackness in America. This read is uncomfortable but necessary, and sadly just as relevant today as it was 5 years ago. At times it was so cerebral that i felt like the content was going over my head—this is definitely a book to read slowly to be sure you’re absorbing all of Rankine’s imagery and rhythm.
