_pauline's review against another edition
4.0
Ignoring isn't the same as ignorance, you have to work at it. Nothing changes instantaneously: in a gradually heating bathtub you'd be boiled to death before you knew it.
you know a book is worth reading when conservatives in the US try to ban it from schools & public libraries
undoubtedly an uncomfortable read but at the same time surprisingly easy to read considering it’s a classic, & unfortunately still relevant

“She doesn’t make speeches any more. She has become speechless. She stays in her home, but it doesn’t seem to agree with her. How furious she must be, now that she’s been taken at her word.”
“I want Luke here so badly. I want to be held and told my name. I want to be valued, in ways that I am not; I want to be more than valuable. I repeat my former name, remind myself of what I once could do, how others saw me.”
“I would like to be without shame. I would like to be shameless. I would like to be ignorant. Then I would not know how ignorant I was.”
