Une lecture très prenante et qui a une dimension malaisante voire effrayante avec cette communauté qui panique (disons-le franchement) à l’idée d’accueillir une personne qui ne leur ressemble pas, qui ne leur parle pas et qu’elle ne peut pas classer/déterminer. Beaucoup aimé la manière dont c’était fait et pensé !

Oooof this was a swing and a miss for me. Loved the premise but utterly failed on the execution. It dances around the themes of identity and religion but the writing was so bland and monotonous. I didn’t care at all about anyone and wasn’t invested in the mystery. So disappointing because I was really looking forward to this read.
