This is not a happy book - at times it is so devestating its hard to keep going but Dionne’s writing is so stunning. It feels uncomfortable sometimes to think of how beautiful the writing is when what she is saying is so deeply sad. Highly recommend to anyone reconsidering diaspora, rejecting the loss of our ancestry, and doing reconnecting/healing work
