It is a very thought provoking read. It’s hard to imagine being a Maasai girl and being subjected to circumcision, so many obstacles to receive an education, and marriage so early. My heart absolutely shattered at the mzungu having to drive away from the dying/dead boy on the road for fear of being blamed for his death.
