"No matter what happens in the world, however brutal or dystopian a thing, not all is lost if there are people out there risking themselves to document it. Little sparks cause fires too."

This is easily one of the best novels I have read this year. Not only is the writing incredible, but I've learnt so much from this book. It tells a story that has never been told, and I think that's a very beautiful thing.
