My Broken Language: A Memoir by Quiara Alegría Hudes
emotional
reflective
medium-paced
4.0
A really beautiful, reflective memoir written with a unpretentious and caring voice. I really only knew Hudes from her work on In the Heights, but now I'm so excited to read her other plays. Hudes tells the story of her family with grit, honesty, and immeasurable kindness. Also, it's an added treat if you're from the Philly area and can recognize the streets young Quiara walks down!
Moderate: Death and Racism
Minor: Animal death, Body shaming, Bullying, Child abuse, Drug abuse, Drug use, and Police brutality
