A review by yellowstainedwall
Year of the Rabbit by Tian Veasna

4.0

I went in with skepticism thinking this is just going to be another book about the Khmer Rouge but I'm genuinely surprised to see Tain Veasna weave in anecdotes from different family members in a masterful way that manage to cover alot of information without detracting from the story flow. The story told throughout the graphic novel is mostly traumatizing but also laced with tenderness and moments where people are just being people - to be humane in the face of adversity/peak cruelty.
