The Sadness of Others by Hayan Charara

5.0

You never really know what you're going to get with a title like this. It's always a risk when the title is so profound, but that said, I am nothing but shaken by this collection. I feel like the pages pulled my face in and wouldn't let go until I finished every last delicious word. Until my heart was broken by content, until I had fully appreciated each sentiment that was pushed beyond just that. I felt m,ore like I was reading small vignettes, terribly true and sad tales lyracized and lined to create the greatest blow. A truly inspiring collection.
