This is one of the best books I have ever read. Coates is eloquent and visceral with his writing while also not abandoning AAVE for the King's English. The audiobook is read by the author and he does a phenomenal job. He is a great speaker and writer. It is a short book that I plan to read again because I know I will get more out of it. I am certain I missed things in the nuance and depth of his words that I just am not able to or ready to full understand right now.
I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
