What do you do in a world stripped of everything you know? A must read. Brilliant work and translation. Like reading a memoir of someone not removed from our own reality. Or even better — I was there with them.
It's one of those books that propels you onward because it lacks flashbacks or haunting narratives and for me it works.
I'm just happy to read that an unlearned human will always thirst for knowledge.
It leaves me with so many questions directed at myself. But also a sense of peace.
