I borrowed this book for no reason. On the QLL Libby library and I would say it is probably one of my favorite books of all time. It embodies me in a way both women (to a certain extent), Africans, both beaten and robbed of culture and heritage, both angry at the countries that subjugated us. Though I was not abandoned by my father or raped I understand her. We are connected and I feel that reading and listening to this book, to her story. This book is everything.
