This is an amazing book, it tells a very powerful and pogniant story of community, family, history, and trauma. It is a rough read and deals very well with so many difficult and emotional things, and is stunningly written
Warning that it is a very heavy, dark, emotional story so take care of yourself and be cautious of triggers.
