Morgan Parker

I picked up a used copy at Shakespeare & Company recently — after seeing Cord Jefferson’s brilliant adaptation, “American Fiction” — and even on a reread, it made me laugh out loud from the first page.

I bitch a lot about the personal essay, for personal and internet reasons, but so many fave books, new and old, are essays and memoir. I'm not one for reviews, but here's a syllabus: @NifMuhammad's THEY CAN'T KILL US UNTIL THEY KILL US @ChelseaHodson's TONIGHT I'M SOMEONE ELSE

goodreads reviews for WHO PUT THIS SONG ON are already very spicy. "the main character, also named morgan parker, wasn't very likable. I tried to sympathize with her but she was so unpleasant I couldn't." FAIR. SAME. but i stand by the music
