I was not prepared for how heartbreaking this book is. I was lulled into false hope by phrases on the back cover like "buoyantly translated" and "vibrant retelling." Was not prepared for the second half of the book to be all red flags. (CW for graphic animal cruelty, brief mention of sexual assault).
I never know how to rate a book like this. It was wildly effective, vivid, beautiful. But acutely painful.
