Peeling layers away on a single weekend

Brandon Taylor really knows how to write. Reading this story captivated my soul in a narrative that, like pulling the Band-aid off a fresh wound, revealed the blood, pain, violence, and healing that can take place over just a few days (only it’s a lifetime really). I found myself wanting to read it again after I finished it, knowing in my gut that I would something new. Well-deserved Booker Prize nomination.
