Everywhere You Don't Belong by Gabriel Bump

3.0

I didn't know what to expect and I was pleasantly surprised. A surreal and poignant story about what it means to be Black in America. We follow our protagonist Claude as he struggles to find his place in the world, from South Shore Chicago, to Missouri and beyond. It's part love story, part rumination on friendship and family. The writing is minimalist at times, yet still gut wrenching and funny in places. I really, really enjoyed this book.
