Citizen

The Book Gods have apparently chosen this week to send me a variety of books that take on the stories of marginalized people, and Citizen is one of the best. It's a book of flash nonfiction mixed with poetry mixed with visual art, and it all combines to share the experiences of black people in today's America. It's difficult to read, at times, painful, sharp, harsh-but-deservedly-so. It's a book that should be read.
