An incredible story that depicts how classism in a society came to shape one's view on someone & the dangers (& injustices) that came with it.

The author have a way with words the brilliantly expressed the characters' experiences without explicitly needing to line out the underlying messages; the impact of injustices towards those made marginalized were the key.

Regardless, the magical way the author told the story weighs it with hope that was inspiring & touching to me. Such an amazing read!
