I have enjoyed this author's other books so was excited to see one I'd not read in a charity shop.

This is a fantastic collection of stories. I love the way the author writes about identity and home. You really get an insight into each characters true feelings and thoughts.

The book has arrived, many thanks!!

Journal Entry 13 by wingsakirmowing at Turku, Varsinais-Suomi / Egentliga Finland Finland on Wednesday, July 14, 2021
A great read, enjoyed most of the stories (perhaps a couple weren't as interesting as others, but well-written nevertheless). Will definitely look for more books by this author.

** Comment for a reading challenge: other countries are mentioned in this, but the author is Sudanese so I chose that. Never been to Sudan and quite likely am not going in the near future...

Yhdessä kirjan tarinoista on mies, jonka väitöskirja on jäänyt kesken ja ahdistuneena siivoaa, joten kirja käy Kouluhaasteeseen 2022-2023 kotitalouskohtaan.
Kansi on keltainen (minusta, voisi käydä oranssistakin), joten osallistun sillä myös Sateenkaarivapautushaasteeseen.
