Absolutely loved this book! It’s rare that we get to hear from the side of kind people helping refugees, getting them settled in their new countries, assisting with the beaurocratic nightmare of gaining residence papers, trying to understand their traumas.
As someone who has seen firsthand the animosity Italians have towards white residents in their country, I think Katja has managed to capture this in a humorous and honest way. It’s time we all educated ourselves on refugees and helped them. There always has and always will be people displaced by war, famine, people traficking and genocide, let us show them kindness and love.
