I have heard this book pitched many time to me and I don’t think anyone I have heard talk about this book has read this book. Yes it’s kind of about potatoes, a pita or farmer, a character is called the shoveler. 

But this book is about racism, this book is about generational trauma and breaking out of that. This book is about trusting the next generation is not just lazy, whiney, and stupid kids.

it’s definitely a weird and 
offputting read at first- but that’s kind of the point! it’s really intriguing as you get into it and really satisfying by the end. worth it !!
