Title: Claude Brown's prose is REAL and Alive!!!!
Review: I am a teacher of freshman English at Florida State University. This semester I had the opportunity to teach a remedial English class that consisted of many students who had never read a book before. . .they were a tough and rugged bunch with a lot of undirected, raw energy. The course objective was to get them to become more comfortable with reading. It was a beautiful and incredible experience to watch Claude Brown humble them, and then turn them into anxious readers. When they began to discuss the book on days when we weren't scheduled to discuss it, I knew I was on to something--Manchild in the Promise Land is a must read. It changed mine and my student's lives. . .It's full of spirit, soul, and that raw primordial energy that moves us whether we like it or not.
Is the review positive or negative?
