bacchicecstasy 's review for:

The Centre by Ayesha Manazir Siddiqi
4.0

I liked how this book contemplates how borders and cultures impact privilege. One can be both oppressor and oppressed, depending on context. I wish there would have been more of an examination of class and privilege when it comes to the main character. I felt like her faults and privileges would be approached and then shied away from.
Of course, the twist at the end that this book is seemingly her storytelling could explain this.
