- Author
- Ralph Ellison
- Genre
- Classic American fiction
- Vibe
- Surreal, propulsive, razor-sharp
- Best read on
- Uptown 2 or 3, especially when the train randomly goes express
- My take
- The opening alone is a mic drop, and the rest is this wild, disorienting tour of American hypocrisy; every time I reread it, some new line jumps out and swings on me.
