adam_nie's review against another edition

challenging dark tense slow-paced

• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

1.5

Skimming the cover gave me entirely the wrong impression. This is a book about the tragedy of colonialism as told by the colonizers. Troubling throughout.
