The Colony by Audrey Magee

dark emotional reflective slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

Terrifically tackles the complicated emotions of a colonial state through two avenues — art and language. I loved the way the perspectives would switch spontaneously. The ending is obvious but still painful till the very last bit.
