So glad that I finally got around to reading this wonderful novel. A coming of age story in 1980's Uganda. Wonderful writing about women and how we fit into the patriarchy. I am excited to read her other novel. 4 🌟, well worth a read. I read this for #invisiblecities, #bigbooks and #bookspinbingo.

Long novels written today are perhaps a contradiction: the dimension of time has been shattered, we cannot love or think except in fragments of time each of which goes off along its own trajectory and immediately disappears.

shuva I loved #InvisibleCities but I'm having a hard time with this one. 7y
jlseymour3 @shuva I liked it at first, it reminded me of Borges. But the schtick is getting old. 7y
jlseymour3 Never mind. I am enjoying it again. I think it is a second person novel. Interesting. 7y
