My Long Trip Home : A Family Memoir
by Mark Whitaker

Here we go again with an "award-winning" journalist whose writing is sub-par (of course, the publisher wrote these words).
The book is about Mark Whitaker's parents, an interracial couple, and how they coped with life. I gave up reading early on. The writing is plodding. What bothers me the most is the awful editing. There's many misspelled words, wrong tenses, wrong words, duplication of one word in the same sentence. It's obvious that nobody proofread it.
Skip this book.
