This was a different style of writing and took some time to get into.
However it was about the strength and will of a woman escaping knows no limits.

She also had a strong mind as something in the present day would remind her of her past. Then the author led you into a last story.
It reminded me of "Unbroken" and "A Short Walk Through the Wide World".
She endured quite a bit and got some peace, although the ending is not as happy but more contentment.

This book reminded me a bit of the story of the matchstick girl. A short but poetic read with a call to action more important now than ever.
“No angels, no harps, no gates… there was only the wind… and feel it now, so soft, so eternal, this wind against your good and living skin.”
