CW: rape, sexual abuse, child abuse, murder, war etc
This book is not a pleasant experience. There is some redemption in it and there is value in perceiving the suffering depicted. It aligns with my understanding of the lives of many people in Afghanistan in many ways. It is well written and the audiobook is well read by the author.
I will likely not read or listen to it again.
