A review by nonetheless_she_read
The Breadwinner by Deborah Ellis

5.0

I borrowed this book when I was substituting an English class. I finished it before I went home that day. It was very good. There was this one part that really spoke to me, where one of the characters talked about how futile writing felt since the regime had prohibited her from publishing. She says she won't write until they are free again. Her husband responds by saying that the opposite should be true, that she needs to write and record for prosperity, for the fight and with pride.
