Monsoon Mansion: A Memoir by Cinelle Barnes

5.0

So powerful, real and true. The childhood of this author is beautifully and catefully enclosed in each chapter - we get to experience her trauma alongside her. We hear what she hears. We see what she sees... The writing so vivid, the descriptions and imagery so powerful, the truth she speaks in this novel will make you smile, cry, and shudder throughout. This is a bittersweet novel, for anyone searching for truth - even when it isn't pretty.
