The Bone Sparrow by Zana Fraillon

---

I did not expect this book to affect me in the way it did. It is so honest, and this is the sort of the book the world needs, to open our eyes and realise that stuff like this still goes on. The conditions in which Subhi lives is heartbreaking, especially as an adult, to read. I say that, because Subhi is a young boy and does not realise just the extent of his treatment until over halfway. The book moved me in a way I cannot even begin to explain. Please read this. Please.
