" This is the first Colson Whitehead that I've read and I'm in love with his writing - the way he packs hidden descriptions into a few words. The books can be confusing to read in small bursts, best to sit and read a chunk at a time because he moves between time periods, I found this one to be a fascinating study of race, politics (office and otherwise), gender, and has a sort of " solve the mystery before you get to the end" element to it.
