An interesting novel. I really didn't know anything about Georgia in the 90s and the civil war. Or the experiences of the displaced people and those left behind.

What a world we have made :-(

Kind of classic video game-style where he just faces challenges and defeats bosses, maybe a bit of a simplistic and un-nuanced plot? However I liked the book’s commentary on & window into post-war Georgian society, not something I have ever learned much about before
