Butterfly Burning by Yvonne Vera

challenging emotional inspiring slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

Utterly beautiful book, a mediation on colonialism and the body as a site for intervention, encroachment and freedom. Lyrical and intense- it packs so much into a mere 150 pages. Going to try and read everything she’s ever written.
