Amazing book. First off the writing style is perfect, it’s done so properly. The way Wagamese describes and tells the story was done very well.
The book made me very emotional, all the twists were shocking. I never expected any of them.
But it was a learning experience. To know how Residential schools worked and how it affects children who attended there like Saul.
In general it is an Amazing book, honestly one of the best I’ve read.
If you’re wondering if you should read it then YESSSS.
