 My first thoughts after I finished reading this was “this is going to sit with me for a while.” Sometimes after you read something, you just need to take the time to sit with and digest what you just read. Just very masterfully and beautifully written. The words just floated off the pages and created such vivid images in my head, and I am someone that very often has trouble visualizing what I am reading. If I was smarter or a more literary inclined person, I would go into more details regarding the parallel we see between the first and second part and how it made me feel and such. It’s one of the books that I almost regret not having a physical copy of that I can annotate and go back to for further analysis. I really don’t have any words, not right now at least. This was a just a phenomenal read. Free Palestine.
