The story was of course harrowing and nightmarish. Gender, caste and class interact in ways that are unfathomable, creating misery and violence on an unimaginable scale. If your justice doesn't heal, but instead reproduces violence, can we call that justice?
I am so incredibly impressed by Faleiro's dedication and hardwork in writing this book. Not only does she manage to provide a detailed and thorough account of the events, but she does so while maintaining an ease in her language, that makes the reading accessible. Juggling a million characters, and timelines, and adding relevant facts and case studies while still maintaining readability is a herculean task that Faleiro has somehow accomplished.
The precise and concise writing brings the horror of the story to the forefront, which is exactly why this is an impactful read.
