A review by stenaros
I See the Promised Land by Arthur Flowers, Manu Chitrakar
2.0
Read for Librarian Book Group
I would not recommend this to elementary-aged children, nor middle school and I would be leery of recommending it to high school students because I think some parents would have a problem with the content. I found the prose style distracting at first, but it grew on me as the book went on. I found the artistic depiction of women throughout the book to be sexist and somewhat offensive. Was it necessary to draw protruding nipples on all of the women including Rosa Parks?
