When I Hit You: Or, A Portrait of the Writer as a Young Wife by Meena Kandasamy

4.0

Well written, heartbreakingly blunt and honest, and poetic in its harshness. This was really really well written, with no embellishment or melodrama. The style was beautiful. I felt like the end was less poignant and riveting than the rest of it - it feels like after the escape the book meanders around the point and loses focus. But it is still honest
