This book is not a literary masterpiece. I'm not rating it 5 stars for any brilliance in writing.
It is, however, a story that desperately needed to be told and that desperately needs to be read. It is a reminder for why intersectional feminism is so important, and so needed. I'll be clear, this is not fun to read, and the writing is flat as flat gets, and yet I wish everybody in the world would read this book. The lack of ratings and reviews, the lack of interest shown to this heart wrenching account of human experience and human injustice, calls to the very necessity to keep pushing for stories like this to be heard.
