A review by gsheffy
Citizen: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine

i absolutely loved her use of analogy/metaphor in this book and the use of a thematic undertone is brilliant. this was such an infuriating look at microaggressions that provided me with so much emotional insight (and I don't want to frame it in terms of its serving me but I'm not sure how else to phrase it.) Anyways, Claudia Rankine is coming to our university to speak in a couple of weeks and based on this book I am so incredibly excited to hear what she has to say!
