A review by firebreathingmermaid
The Farming of Bones by Edwidge Danticat
4.0
It's been a while since I read this as I didn't used to ever write reviews, but now I kind of want to, so I'll say what I can recall from it. Mostly this: that it was one of the most beautifully written novels I have ever read. The prose is just pure art. It's gorgeous.
Story-wise, it's an excellent historical fiction of an era and an event that many (myself included) have learned far too little about. For me, it was both an experience of art and and education, and for that I appreciate it very much.
