Passing: The revolutionary novel which inspired Rebecca Hall's powerful film adaptation
Nella Larsen
@NathanJonesBook Passing, by Nella Larsen. As ignorant as it sounds, I had to read it in college and had no idea BIOOC felt the need to pass as white. It broke my heart and opened my eyes. (1/2)

The Sound and the Fury
William Faulkner
@NathanJonesBook Also The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner. The perspective of Benjy blew my mind. And the book was intended to be printed in color to denote characters’ dialogue and thoughts. So much is possible with story telling! 🤯📚
