Tumelo Moleleki’s Reviews > La petite fille de Monsieur Linh > Status Update

Once again I have been coerced into sharing my reading with members of this household! This time I read, then I translate what I've read to them as they don't understand the language of narration.

A song sung to girl babies that tells them they will (not might) be mothers one day... Here I have encountered a first instance of what makes the book unpleasant to read, just not unbearable.

Insufferable! The word sang exists in French, so why should this man mishear Sang diu as sans dieu and not sang dieu? The disrespect of others is so matter of fact with these people
