luckyniko 's review for:
Speak, Okinawa: A Memoir
by Elizabeth Miki Brina
i liked this book but actually i didn't because i cried so hard i had to take a nap.
4 stars because it was touching and the historical facts about okinawa were really interesting.
///spoilers//// like... im not kidding.
liiiiiiike, i know she was just a kid but its so fucked up that she wouldnt even try to communicate with her mom. i can only barely comprehend the crippling loneliness her mom must have felt to have no one (husband or offspring) try to know you? and to lash out because you're in pain and to be dismissed?? i sobbed and EMK if you see me in the streets... we are boxing. im glad things are turning around though, like honestly.
