A review by bloodyfool0
Black Boy [seventy-Fifth Anniversary Edition] by Richard Wright
4.0
He's not trying to sell anyone. All he's doing is telling us about his upbringing and experiences in life growing up as a black American. His interactions not only with his kind but White people also. Truthfully admits to his wrongdoings and his reflections on the things he shouldn't have done.
Stands firm in his beliefs which arises not so much by the influences of those around him but BOOKS! Yes his obsession with reading is obvious and that's one of the best ways to reflect on your life, by reading.
Did I say he reads so well. Yes, it is immersive and you get brought into his world - no judgments, mere understanding of this gifted author.
