Jul 08, 2025 Erin rated it it was amazing · review of another edition

Gay is absolutely incredible. The novel is lyrical but tough to read as Gay presents the story of Mirielle, a Haitian raised in American who is kidnapped and held for thirteen days while visiting her parents on the island. So powerful.
