[Charlie Easterson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Mixed but ultimately positive feelings here. There’s always something sort of off about reading the stories and history of a living and beautiful culture through the eyes of someone outside of it and I’m hesitant about trusting the accuracy or tone. That said, something about this feels very much like listening to a slightly out-of-touch grandmother tell stories of her childhood and it’s wonderfully warm in that specific way.
