The Removed by Brandon Hobson
3.0

I’m glad I read this novel about indigenous Americans, but I didn’t ‘enjoy’ it per se. It’s so very similar to, and my review is the same as, SHARKS IN THE TIME OF SAVIORS: Dense, cerebral, visceral and haunting, it is the portrait of a family as it slowly falls apart. The multiple POV chapters contain mostly internal monologue and shed light on the effects of racism and colonization.
