Sep 23, 2020Easily read in one sitting, I love that this book reinforces that race does play a part in how the world perceives us, how even a simple meeting the parents can be disastrous and hurtful, and knowing your self-worth -even if the one who is supposed to be yours-won't. Charlot Kristensen's debut is a memorable one and I look forward to the storytelling she will bring to us next project. With her talent and her flair for artfully expressing the feelings and words that don't always get spoken or verbally expressed, I can already predict her next work will be equally moving and insightful.
