pickWhat to make of C.L.R. James, a black, Marxist, anti-colonialist "founding father" of independent Trinidad who considers his two foundational passions to be classical English literature and cricket? This book - equal parts autobiography and examination of cricket as an art form and political driver - explains the seeming contradiction and shows that it's not really contradictory at all. A man with a fascinating, wide-ranging mind. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The_Penniless_Author I should add that as an American, I was utterly baffled by the cricket terminology and descriptions of specific matches, and it still didn't dampen my enjoyment of the book or understanding of the broader themes one bit. 2y
