5.0
I’ve finished this memoir and can hardly form a coherent sentence. I am, simply in awe of Safiya Sinclair.
HOW TO SAY BABYLON is a magnificent piece of literature. I’ll shout it from the rooftops “READ THIS MEMOIR!” What an incredible memoir showing the resilience and strength of one phenomenal human, Safiya Sinclair.
In this memoir we follow Safiya Sinclair’s childhood through adulthood living under an incredibly strict Rastafari household in Jamaica.
There was so much heaviness that occurs during Safiya’s life, that I was constantly blown away by her strength. I urge you all to read this! There are some difficult topics mentioned so go in with that understanding.
With that said, this memoir is incredibly written. Safiya Sinclair has an amazing way with words! Please read this memoir, you’ll be changed by it!
Thanks to the publisher @simonbooks for sending me a copy #SimonBooksBuddy, this memoir comes out tomorrow 10/03/2023!
