5.0

One of my new favorite books of all time, Girl, Woman, Other is a powerful collection of vignettes depicting various characters as they navigate the struggles within the intersections of gender, race, sexuality, and socioeconomic class. There is no book like it and I doubt there will be another that comes close to accomplishing the beauty and heartache of being a “girl/woman/other.”
