( ) This was another case of going into a book completely blind, not even having read the synopsis of the book. I picked it because I had previously read a book by this author and it was available for check out. I wasn't expecting as dark and deep a story as this but was pleasantly surprised that it was as good as the other book I read by her. Whenever I hear people talk about the "good old days," I want to smack them over the head with books like this one where the reality of what was going on in the 50's and 60's was not happiness and sunshine for so many people. This book is about the forced sterilization of black women in the US and was as heartbreaking as it was infuriating. As you can imagine, there is a lot of misogyny, racism and overall lack of respect for lives that weren't white and financially sound. It was a disturbing read but a good one that I highly recommend. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
