sprinklesomeromero 's review for:

At Night All Blood Is Black by David Diop

5.0

The prose in this book is so gorgeous, as I was reading a translation of the original this really struck me. This is a deeply devastating book, about a man and what war does to his body and his psyche, what it robs him of and what he does to not be robbed, an effort in vain. This book is about a man living with having committed a betrayal, one he can never forgive himself for. I cannot wait to read more from this author.
