![Cover of The South by Adolph Reed Jr., published 2022-05-03 by Verso Trade, a 176-page hardcover](./cover-6175676.jpg)

Starting the year with the slimmest book on the pile, and a memoir to boot, worked well the past two years. I forget why I wishlisted this one — I thought I'd read another Adolph Reed Jr. book but I see shelving this now that it was his son, Touré, whose "Toward Freedom" I'd enjoyed (and just added to Bookwyrm.)
