I bought this book on an spur of the moment, after perusing the shelves of Pages in Holetown, Barbados with my nose slightly wrinkled by the sheer dearth of selection.I passed by this, did a quick look on the shelf, looked away and double-taked, stopped in my tracks and walked back.
It literally JUMPED into my hand, and I bought it even though I wasn't completely sure I could afford it at the time.
What an amazing read. I am just about past the halfway mark at this writing, and I am utterly engrossed in Aminata Diallo's story.
There were parts of the story too sickening to read, but my eyes could not look away from the page. As not only rage, but deep ancestral pain spoke out to me from the pages of this novel, and even though I haven't finished reading it, I have to say, I just can't look away from it. I am drawn to the pages over and over and over, pushing through even the most difficult of the passages.
"Am completely hooked on this story and cannot put it down!"
