I'd call this a memoir with a purpose which is something that's right up my alley, but this one was a little difficult to keep straight. The bouncing back and forth between personal stories and memories of the men who died just for a bit confusing in audiobook form. But it was incredibly powerful and raw. Jesmyn really doesn't pull any punches in her writing.
