The was my favorite of the Binti trilogy! I suppose it’s the book where it all comes together but even still. It was the longest and I felt like I knew Binti better and the Himba people and how they relate to others around them. Very timely commentary on war and how there are disputes no one can even remember why they are fighting they just believe the stories and hate passed down generation to generation. I was a little surprised in parts - a few twists and I wasn’t sure how it would be resolved, if at all. Okorafor has made an incredible world with so much detail. I want the Binti movie!!

Relectura de la trilogía de Binti acabada. Esta vez en catalán, y seguida (todo lo seguida que se puede hacer con poco tiempo para leer en papel).
Me he vuelto a emocionar, he visto la historia con una perspectiva ligeramente diferente y la he vuelto a disfrutar probablemente más que la primera vez. Los cambios son parte de la vida, y a veces solo nos falta verlos con la perspectiva y la compañía adecuada, y en el momento preciso para saber apreciarlos.
