So disappointed in this book. I bought it over a decade ago and never read it... I felt guilty about it gathering dust on my bookshelf, so I literally suffered for over two weeks to get through this... I don't even have words for this disaster.
The fetishization of Black men (when this is supposed to be written BY Black men) still blows my mind... and makes me feel so sorry for these BLACK MALE writers. Is this really how you see yourselves?!?
Most of these men cannot write from a woman's point of view and should have never tried.
Best stories? "Post Script" and "Coming of Age". Actually very well-developed plots and character relationships. Read those stories and skip the rest.
