"Beautiful, often hilarious vignettes drawn from real life. The English translation is fine, but could use some tightening, and I wonder if it'd have benefitted from some footnotes. Still, ya can't keep a story like "No Harm Intended" down; it's a very Arab little thing, written (like the others) with a lot of affection from people. I've been reading it in little bursts as breaks from bigger texts." — Jun 22, 2026 01:10AM

"Still reading sporadically. Really not an easy book for me to get through these days. So much of the book, written before the 2023-2026 genocide, is hopeful; it breaks my heart." — May 25, 2026 08:37AM
