never in a million years could you have made me guess how this book ended. i am beyond words.
the unreliable narrator, the descent into Alfa's insanity and loss of identity, Diop's writing beautifully encapsulates the brutality that comes with war.
the last three chapters completely turned the book on its head for me. the ambiguous ending lends to thinking and rethinking about this book, about its different interpretations and what they mean to the story as a whole. i want to re-read this book with the knowledge i have now.
