after re-reading the adventures of huckleberry fin, I was left upset that there wasn’t more reflection on huck’s part so it was absolutely refreshing to read james’s thought-provoking self-contemplation. I am left absolutely undone at the end of this. this book deserves all the awards. all the accolades. it’s brilliant.
