Eve out of Her Ruins by Ananda Devi
4.0
Devi has written a tale of 4 teenagers growing up in Troumaron, a neighborhood of Port Louis, Mauritius. A neighborhood that the tourists don't ever see.
It is the story of poverty from which there is no escape, unless they can somehow fly away. The story is haunting and beautiful, despite the cruelty described, Devi's beautiful prose shines through.
