–A lie is worse than a rust, they say. Powdery-soft, stealing from leaf to leaf till the whole field is crumbling and rotten. We have to trust each other to survive. Trust each other to work, and to tell the truth– Reid
Mohamed writes with engaging ease that captures the mind and heart, for this work begs the reader to delve into not just the destruction and degradation of our planet and the resulting ramifications, it prompts us to ask of ourselves, in a community that survives through collaboration and support, how do you choose yourself?
This narrative really focuses on Reid and the role she plays in her community, the strength she must project for her mother and the love she has for friend and the family that has been built through cooperation.
