Description: | Select Guide Rating Malcolm X was a country bumpkin who became a zoot-suited entertainer; who became a petty criminal; and, who became a self-taught intellectual. This title chronicles these many incarnations of Malcolm X, describing the multiple masks he donned over the years. ''Groundbreaking ... It will be difficult for anyone to better this book ... a work of art, a feast that combines genres skilfully: biography, true-crime, political commentary. It gives us Malcolm X in full gallop'' Wil Haygood, Washington Post |
