The first book where I felt seen and understood. All of me, all the multitudes of who I've been and where I've been. This book translated an experience that had consumed my life into tangible language for the first time in my life, a language that was achingly familiar and ran so deep. Beautiful and stunning. I wish there was more to read. I recommend it to everyone.
