A Visible Man

TARIRO MZEZEWA, NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

"Black readers specifically — British, American, Ghanian or otherwise — will find Enninful's experiences of racism relatable ... It would be misguided to pick up this memoir in search of scoops about Enninful's American Vogue counterparts. The author knows his story is his own, and he does not lean on gossip in charting his own rise ... The industry insights are intriguing, but some of the most memorable and endearing passages in this book consist of Enninful's more personal disclosures ... He writes poignantly about his close relationship with his mother, his adoration of his siblings and his tense relationship with his father ... The memoir truly shines in its most intimate revelations of Enninful's sobriety and depression, of what it felt like to soar professionally while struggling personally — and of how he learned to lean on those who love him most."
