Wow, literally where do I even begin.
I’ve always been an admirer of linguistics and languages, so I was very keen to get into this book. This was my first Kuang novel, and I get it. I get it.
The dedication, passion and love for this project seeps through every word. A heartbreaking, breathtaking classic of epic proportions. This novel is going to stick around for a long, long time. I’m so glad, so privileged, to be able to read this life-changing book.
