Loved all of Selva’s other books but the cruelty towards dogs in Bricklayers meant I couldn’t read any further than the greyhound incident.

Two Palestinian sisters navigating their parent’s divorce, which under ‘normal’ circumstances us a traumatic experience, add to it a father imprisoned and tortured by Israeli police and the ridiculous checkpoint crossings needed as for them to visit each parent. The more I read about Israeli occupation in Palestine the more rage I feel.

LOVED this book, am still thinking about this book.

Every woman needs this book on her coffee table. Magnificent.
