margztgz's review against another edition

emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad tense fast-paced

4.0

Read this for an anthropology & religion class I'm in; it was excellent! I don't often read graphic novels but it was nice to introduce myself to a new structure. The characters were very well developed and lovable, and I've read few books that speak on the intertwining of politics, health, and religion in such a unique way.
