rep: jewish mc, polynesian mc, lesbian couple, asian mc for different chapters
content warning: wwi and wwii era setting for some chapters, descriptions of shellshock, slavery, plantation life and corporal punishment.
Brilliantly written, each of the three stories able to stand on their own, but in this interconnected web of stories spanning centuries and lives, they are delicious well-crafted.
I enjoyed the change in tone with every story or point of view and overall, the historical details and the characters were very realistic despite the supernatural elements.
