Even though it is a memoir, it is not very personal as you expect it to be. We learn about Holloway's son not her husband or other children. We don't even learn a lot of things about the son either. It seems to me that this is a combination of personal and cultural experience. The book is essentially about well, literature. Holloway talks about a variety of writers and books throughout the book. The book is split into many chapters and in each of them, Holloway talks about an issue while connecting it to writers and their works. One of the main issues is the lack of African-American writers in the so-called literary canon. I liked it, in general, but it wasn't anything that I haven't learned already.
