A review by rootedreader
How to Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair

dark emotional hopeful inspiring sad tense fast-paced

5.0

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy to review. It tells of Safiya's upbringing in Jamaica living in a strict Rastafarian household. She shares her story of breaking away from this and finding herself and her voice through writing. This was an enjoyable read. I love reading memoirs and this one in particular as she shares her experience as well as that of Jamaica's history of colonialism and its impact on the people. Beautifully written this one will stay with me for a while.
