The Devil You Know is a groundbreaking manifesto, proposing nothing short of the most audacious power play by Black people in the history of this country. this books sings a different song and it cuts true inside because I know for some reason as much as I love NY I am not, nor have I ever been happy here.
We all know they are fighting deeper feelings for one another than they are willing to admit, and I loved how much Coop loved Tatum. When he refuses to collude in her fantasy, she persecutes him, attempting to poison his dog by slinging rotten meat into his garden. Adshead discusses language many times, highlighting a patient’s selection or absence of words, the use of present tense when describing a traumatic event, and the difficulties faced when the doctor and the patient are not fluent in the same language. Alongside doctor and patient, we discover what human cruelty, ranging from serial homicide to stalking, arson or sexual offending, means to perpetrators, experiencing first-hand how minds can change when the people some might label as “evil” are able to take responsibility for their life stories and get to know their own minds.
She has always been drawn to gruff bad boys, clever villains, and the twisty-turns of a morally gray character. to Marvel Comics (“You won’t like me when I’m angry”), which not only lightly punctuates the grief and pain within a patient’s story, but also illustrates the many bridges between psychiatry and the arts.
Tatum, on the other hand, wants Cooper to be the one to take her V Card before she leaves to college. I read a book on schizophrenia, the best I have ever read, that had a tremendous influence on me Operators and Things: The Inner Life of a Schizophrenic.The school portion of the book did make me slightly anxious about college approaching soon and I did wish the summer portion lasted a bit longer. The Devil You Know is a groundbreaking manifesto, proposing nothing short of the most audacious power play by Black people in the history of this country. In addition, she cites an episode involving Blow’s son who, at the time (2015), was a student at Yale, who had been stopped at gunpoint by a university police officer.
I was awakened watching Rodney King get beaten within an inch of his life some THIRTY YEARS AGO by racist, sociopathic cops who were exonerated, as I watched alongside my infantry platoon of black and brown and red and white bodies talking about their 18-to-21-year-old histories within the System.And Charles Blow's book posits that a reverse migration of Black voters to the American South could help create a more just government, undoing white supremacy through political and geographical power taking. The emotion, sexual tension and everything in between, is well written and captured with POV’s from both Tatum and Cooper. Overall, I would definitely still recommend picking this book up if you like contemporary romance with fake dating and brother’s best friend. His arguments presented here for Black folk needing space and feeling of community and comfort are quite persuasive.
