This was such a strange delightful read!
I really enjoyed the point of view, the super short chapters, the sort of "stunted" story telling, and all of the weird little characters.
I was very invested in the story line, the slight mystery, and the way the characters inter-connected.
This was a very interesting and captivating view on migrancy, homeland, xenophobia, immigrants, and what it means to belong to a place.
I am very interested to read and discover more of this authors work!
