They poison the farmers with their pesticides and chemical fertilizers! Now Baba is sick! These people are not our friends!
I went through this book so so quickly. I really felt for Anna the entire novel. Definitely recommend - especially for those interested in a comic book that also delves into cross-cultural anthropology subjects and medicine practices across cultures.

Read this for an anthropology & religion class I'm in; it was excellent! I don't often read graphic novels but it was nice to introduce myself to a new structure. The characters were very well developed and lovable, and I've read few books that speak on the intertwining of politics, health, and religion in such a unique way.
