This book inspires me like no other. This is how I want to be able to write

Ah and about beauty, about beauty

Yup it’s still the best book I’ve read. There’s so much to unpack here, about language and names, about race and color, about war, about the relationship of a mother and child, about (toxic) masculinity, about want and wanting to convey something to a person who it cannot reach, about (mis)understanding.
