Dear Diaspora by Susan Nguyen
2.0
This book talks about grief, maturing, immigration, identity, etc. Truly, I was entirely taken aback by this book because it’s so fascinating. Initially, I could not find the words to describe it because it’s so unique and, personally, very hard for me to categorize. But, its style and language was definitely new to me and I would recommend it for anybody wanting to branch out from their usual reading choices.
My only complaint is: I believe some parts of it could’ve been edited / remastered to become more personal / emotional. At times, it became a little monotonous and it needed a more intimate touch.
All in all, I love this book and it gave me the pleasure of that furrowing your eyebrows kind-of-confusion and continuing to read nevertheless to discover what it is that had long been unknown to you.
