Complaint! by Sara Ahmed
4.0
Sarah Ahmed has an amazing voice. She writes scholarship like a poem, and she paints pictures and emotions with her words and using others’ words.
This is a heavy book, though. The vast majority of complaints covered deal with very serious sexual assault incidents. I will be honest that I didn’t finish it. I wasn’t prepared for the almost singular focus on that issue. At some point it became too much to go on. I’ve heard the ending offers some light at the end of the tunnel, so I do plan to go back and look for that. If I do, I’ll update this review.
