I commend the honesty of this book. The tone Édouard Louis uses lacks emotion, but this is so effective because it gives us an account of the injustices experienced on all sides, and the events are emotive enough in themselves. I want to thank the author so much for his candour, which has enabled me to open my eyes to what other groups of people around us face.
