Wrestling with the Devil: A Prison Memoir by Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o

4.0

This was hard to get through because I don't know nearly enough colonial and postcolonial Kenyan history and the sheer injustice hit close to home. Beautifully written, amazing amount of anti-colonial theory and practice in the thing while also being this straightforward memoir of prison. Just fantastic.
