This is a book that I'll definitely need to read again to fully understand it. It has a wealth of characters and a beautiful cosmology underlying and guiding the story with rich symbolism that is a bit hard to grasp through the first read. Excited to read again when I have a bit more time and attention to devote!
Graphic: Slavery, Violence, Grief, and Colonisation
Moderate: Suicide and Blood
