Harold's Commentary/Review:
A white author attempts to describe how a black maid might feel in a white household. She did some fine work here but I also get the sense that its written by and for privilege. I want to see all those awards going to the people who really deserve them.

WHAT is THIS?
This digital bookshelf is, loosely defined, a collection of books that I (Harold Sikkema) have read over the years of my life. I began this list because I wanted to get a sense of my reading over time. I suppose the chronology also gives a picture of my evolving interests and concerns. I cannot claim that this is a complete list; there are lots of things I've read that are not listed here. I will add to my digital bookshelf as time allows. See also: A Compendium of Books, an earlier blog post reflecting on this effort.
