Sing, Unburied, Sing is a wonderful story. I don't even know how to describe it other than it connects me with what it means to be human, both good and bad, on so many levels - which is one of the main reasons i read books - to experience life through others that i cannot experience first hand. This story is rich and deep and shares the best and the worst of what it means to be human, as a person of color, in Mississippi; both today and in the past. If you get a chance, read this book, you will be richer for it. Looking forward to Salvage the Bones.

Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward has already won the coveted National Book Award for Fiction. Awards speak to critical, literary recognition. What speaks to me is the characters and the story. For its many layers and its complex characters, the book is difficult to describe as the description may not capture its depth. This is a book that is greater than the sum of its parts and is memorable for its characters and its story.
