Malcolm X: A Life of Reinvention by Manning Marable
4.0
So so well done, extremely thorough and interesting and dense while still being engaging. It took me 12 million years to get through, but it was worth it.
I do really wish I had started with The Autobiography of Malcolm X before reading this, because a lot of this book, especially at the beginning, discusses the Autobiography and especially places where it embellishes or deviates from the truth. If you’re diving in and considering reading both, read that one before opening this.
