Pop culture and family history
A queer Afro-Latinx poet dealing with mental health issues and chronic pain explores his family history, trauma, and pop culture in this essay collection. It ranges from BoJack Horseman to Creed, Miles Morales to the fall of Kanye West, Aaron Sorkin’s America to Barack Obama singing "Amazing Grace". This is a particularly thought-provoking and moving audiobook read by the author. Fans of Hanif Abdurraquib, Kiese Laymon and Aimee Nezhukumatathil should take note.
