The Dragons, the Giant, the Women: A Memoir by Wayétu Moore

adventurous challenging emotional reflective tense fast-paced

5.0

I loved Wayetu Moore's novel She Will Be King, so I knew this book would be beautifully told. What I didn't expect was to be so engrossed in the action in Parts 1 and 3, even though I knew Moore made it out of the Liberian Civil War by virtue of her writing the memoir. What came across so clearly and lovingly was her portrayal of her father and other family members. What a tribute to a man who saved his family, while never losing tenderness toward this children.
