amazing book! read for a class and it was a page turner. the way it was narrated so compellingly and cogently inspired me to reflect on my past and childhood. i was impressed and it felt extremely personal. the focus on the internal processes of coping with colonization was fascinating and sad. i felt very attached to the characters particularly the women.
