What a beautiful and painful story about love, music, and violence in Jamaica! It's 1976, and Jamaica is divided between political parties. Irie and her best friend Jilly have graduated school. Irie wants to perform reggae; Jilly is trying not to succumb to her politician parents' expectations. All they have in common is love of music and love for each other. Is it enough to bridge the divide between them? Irie is so powerful and passionate. I loved her journey even though it destroyed me. Jilly really came through in an unexpected way. I think everyone who loves Sapphic historical stories needs to read this. I have so many thoughts on this book, that I don’t know where to begin. The book was thoughtful and well-plotted, and did a fabulous job of slowly building the atmosphere and setting without doing massive information dumps. The main characters, Iris and Jilly, were both complex and complicated. I would 10 out of 10 recommend. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
