5.0

This is such a painful and important book. It couldn't feel more important with what is happening in Iran at the moment but what is clear from the book, is that this has always been happening in Iran and especially to Kurdish people. It's positive it's finally being brought to light. This is a really difficult read but so beautiful and hopeful at the same time.
