bougainvillea 's review for:
An Untamed State
by Roxane Gay
4.5
I would have given this 5 stars, except I did not like the ending and there are a couple of inconsistencies that bothered me, in terms of language (a character with the last name LeBlanche) and geography (a day trip to Jérémie from Port-au-Prince. I guess it's technically possible, but not very likely).
But the post-kidnapping portion is quite amazing. There is tons to discuss in this book, in terms of race and gender relations. Highly recommend to read and to teach.
