Incredible highs and lows are vividly portrayed (for me, one standout is the degradation of Malcolm having to rinse the chemicals out of his hair in toilet water--this incident makes me physically cringe and feel pain for him), and thrilling and fascinating episodes leave me marveling that one person could achieve and experience so much. This book is wonderful. The writing is excellent, and Malcolm X's life story is as amazing as anyone could imagine. Later in his life, as his understanding of humanity expands and deepens, my respect and admiration for him likewise grows. I can't adequately describe either the book or the way I feel about it.I first read this for school, but as I was reading it I knew it was something that I'd truly appreciate and come back to over and over again.
Through all of his trials and tribulations, Malcolm always found a way to gain strength and grow in both mind and spirit. A timeless classic. This book tells the metamorphasis of a strong Black man, from boyhood to manhood. A must read for all Americans. We must not forget his contributions to our society.
This is a book everyone should read. It's a book you can't seem to put down. There is a part of this book that i love."I read aimlessly, until I learned to read selectively, with a purpose". This book changed the way i viewed certain things in life.
I must have clicked on the wrong item, because I did NOT purposely order Max Notes. I already have two Master's Degrees and a year of Law School. So, I do not need "notes."
it was not clear to me upfront: this book is not the acutal autobiography. These are the notes for the book. they summarize chapters and importance of them. so if you want to read the actual book, do not purchase this one.
