Colored People: A Memoir

Not as interesting as I anticipated. It had the same problems that "Snow in Havana" had. The author interjected adult rationale and logic onto childhood experiences. The teenage years were much more interesting because they seemed more real and natural. There wasn't the arrogance of an adult point of view once he started writing about his teenage years.

We are all so much more alike than different . . . An essential read.

I love this book. It's hilarious and honest; honest almost to the point of crying at some points. It's very emotional and historical; showing historic events though the eyes of a person coming to know himself. I think it;s worth reading.
