Black Leopard, Red Wolf by Marlon James
3.0

Sigh. Literature. Not that I’m opposed to such things, but it’s hard to read literature when your brain wants anything but.
I almost want to read this book over the course of 3 weeks with a professor to help unpack the nuances and analyze the choices and fit it into the different traditions it’s calling to and playing with.
I don’t think I’d go so far as saying it’s a good book for someone else, but it’s a book that asks you to work. And I am so very tired.
Today on “is the star system about how GOOD the book is or how much I ENJOYED it?”
