Som All Quiet on the Western Front, fast berättad av en av de svarta soldaterna.
Det genommörka och brutala bryts av med berättelser från byn i Senegal, vilket jag uppskattar.
Det är bra, och språket är tillräckligt bra för att jag inte ska inse att det är översatt (jag läser på engelska).
Hemskt, men bra.

The cadence of the book is unusual.  I found myself reading aloud.

Gruesome but not without something more.

Read it in one day

this was a fever dream wrapped with a fancy bow called trauma

it was fine but some of the prose and lyrical bits of it kinda went over my head.
