Wow what a story!
This book is very short, and yet still manages to immerse the reader. As always, Miller’s writing is honest in an almost brutal way, and I just love it
I would highly recommend reading the afterword, too - if you haven’t already considered the similarities between this ancient story and people’s experiences today, it provides some great commentary
Definitely check the content warnings for this one, but it is so worth the read
