Babel by R.F. Kuang

4.0

I think I really want to give this a 3.5 because there were a few plot issues for me - but I LOVED the concept and the ideas she explored around colonialism and how language and power are so inextricably linked. It was a very creative and moving way to critique the "knowledge" builders of our worlds and shine a light on the fact that our systems of education are tied to the dominant forces we live under that rely on inequality and violence to be maintained.
