A review by nadia
How to Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair

emotional reflective medium-paced

4.0

A really good memoir with great writing! I didn't really know much about the origins of the Rastafari religion, so it was interesting to learn more about it in this book, interspersed with Sinclair's journey from a difficult childhood to the poet/writer she is today.
