3 stars (meaning that I liked the book ? - hmmmmm...maybe?)

This is a book - 400 pages in the large print - of little instances all pieced together like it was a novel that wound around and around this author on his book tour and his very dark skinned black ten year old disappearing friend. Some stories made sense - others didn't. Sometimes you felt that the 10 year old kid was actually the author himself, other times only a part of his imagination, while at other times a representative of the overall repressed black population. Hard to interpret. Any and all could be right.

However, I think this is the best autofiction book I have ever read. Written in first person, fictionalized snippets of the authors life, cross between fiction and autobiographical. Not particularly a book I would recommend, but a book that could lead to some great discussions in the right book group
