Same Kind of Different as Me is a non-fiction autobiography of the two authors, Ron Hall and Denver Moore. Lynn Vincent is the ghostwriter. The book’s format is structured to argue its thematic content. While Ron and Denver are opposites— one is a rich white art dealer and the other is an uneducated black homeless man— their spirituality is universal. Ron's chapters typically precede Denver chapters, creating a point/counterpoint style. Ron and Denver are presented as foils, and their lives are juxtaposed through the book’s structure. The chapters alternate between their two perspectives, comparing and contrasting their distinct dialects while also drawing attention to their similarities.
