This story was powerful but miserable. It’s not something I can casually recommend because what little light and hope there was was always squashed. Though I found Solange sympathetic, acknowledging that she was in a rough situation I could NEVER imagine facing, I can’t say she’s someone I admire or even like. She killed too many of her own people.
Graphic: Fire/Fire injury, Genocide, Grief, War, and Child abuse
Minor: Rape
