nuhafariha 's review for:
When We Were Sisters
by Fatimah Asghar
Thanks to One World and NetGalley for the Advanced Reader's Copy!
Available Oct 18.
Don't read this book unless you are utterly willing to have your heart stomped on. It is absolutely beautiful, moving tribute to the power of sisterhood and the many ways it saves us and the many ways it cuts our soul. When three sisters become orphans, they are forced to rely on each other like never before. Told in lyrical prose from the youngest sister's perspective, this unique coming of age is mired in violence, sexual, physical and emotional. It is dark and gritty, but there is a tenderness to the voice, a yearning, a romantic. Just an incredible mastery of the written word and the heart.
