You may look at this book and go "only 256 pages? Piece of cake." But believe me when I say that this is a hard book to read, and made even more essential to the average American reader because of that. You come away from OW&R with not only a deeper grasp on who Jesmyn Ward is, but who you are and your place as a modern-day American.
