A review by savvylit
Ayiti by Roxane Gay

emotional reflective medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes

4.0

Despite the extremely short length of some of these stories (2 pages), each one is impactful and well-crafted. Having only been familiar with Gay's nonfiction prior to this, I was delighted to find that her talent extends to the fictional as well. Each character in this collection was complex and tangible, no matter how little time spent with them.
