Black Boy by Richard Wright

dark emotional informative reflective sad slow-paced

3.0

I enjoyed this book I did, but I found myself really only enjoying the parts where he was re-counting his life not where he was analyzing Everyone and everything. That got a bit tiresome and tedious at times. my class only required us to re-part one and part two as it was only about 130 more pages. If it was a recount of his life or only it probably would have been up to a 3.75 maybe even four stars however it still may have felt a little long. I just lost a lot of it’s appealed to me because when he went on analyzing things sometimes it was easy to get lost in his vocabulary or even lost in your own thoughts and not in the best way instead simply drifting away from what he was saying.
