Witty, gritty and absolutely brilliant! If a young reader hadnt recommended this book to me every time we talked about books that challenged our perceptions of feminism, mental health and identity, I wouldn't have even known to buy and read this book.
Author and illustrator uses her sharp pencil based drawings I think to discuss serious subjects like suicide, death, love, sexuality and mental health, while describing Kari's journey through the smoky and bursting with life - Mumbai.
Now even I will be recommending this graphic novel to anyone I talk to books about :)
