Living on Hope Street by Demet Divaroren

5.0

This book encompassed so many elements of today's society such as multiculturalism, refugee experience, white privilege and domestic and familial hardships in a way that is unforgettable. The story is told from multiple characters points of view and whilst it is a shorter book, the large number of characters didn't bother me. Each character came from a different age, cultural and linguistic background and really painted the picture of suburban Australia and how different cultures live together on this Hope Street and the difficulties but also triumphs that can arise from this. It really is a wholesome book and one that brings awareness to other people's experience and how we must acknowledge that.
