i write this review with tears in my eyes. azumah nelson has a gift. i’ve never read any author who can put the sheer joy, devastation, love and being of life into words. the book isn’t perfect, there are things which i would’ve done differently. but my god, is it a masterpiece. it is so bright, so emotional, so deeply thought out, so connected, so raw and painfully written that it steals your breath away. a beautiful, beautiful book.
