bsimmonds's review against another edition

2.0

This story is important, heartbreaking, and worthwhile. Also, the writing is repetitive, with sentences from the previous paragraph repeated in a different word order... throughout the entire book. Somehow, it's still hard to follow despite the constant reminders to the reader. Overall, it's a valuable and unique perspective distracted by the writing itself.
