[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Her first book made a lot of “literary” waves (both by being loved and hated), and paved the way for similar memoirs, including many by black women (Roxane Gay is a clear descendant). People of any race who are into that world would have been aware of it, but if you’re not big into navel-gazing literary controversies it easily could have passed you by. [/quote] I think what triggered me was that the reviews suggested that she had such an impact on Gen X. I went to a women’s college and so that’s why I was really curious as a black woman. This is been so intriguing to me that I called a girlfriend who is also black. She had the same reaction that I did. I told her I was calling her because she was black and went to Harvard so maybe she had a different perspective. She didn’t. We have the same perspective. We laughed about it.[/quote]
