520    "Laymon writes eloquently and honestly about the physical 
       manifestations of violence, grief, trauma, and abuse on 
       his own body. He writes of his own eating disorder and 
       gambling addiction as well as similar issues that run 
       throughout his family. Through self-exploration, 
       storytelling, and honest conversation with family and 
       friends, Heavy seeks to bring what has been hidden into 
       the light and to reckon with all of its myriad sources, 
       from the most intimate--a mother-child relationship--to 
       the most universal--a society that has undervalued and 
       abused black bodies for centuries"--|cProvided by
