Von dieser Welt by James Baldwin

dark reflective sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? N/A
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

I know it deserves more than 4.5 stars, but it was so dense, depressing and challenging, that I can't compare the experience reading it to the other 5 star books.
