Dionne Brand reads the audiobook - it's phenomenal. I loved listening and reading... sometimes separately, sometimes together.

I'll call this 3 1/2 stars, and I'll round up because I enjoyed the first half so much. The first half was more free-flowing narrative, almost random at times, and the second half was more like a typical memoir.
