“Violence is not something that advertises itself. It is not written on my face - he is too careful for that, of course, aiming his fists at my body. As long as a woman cannot speak, as long as those to whom she speaks do not listen, the violence is unending.” • • Reading this book was quite an experience - an uncomfortable yet important one. I wasn’t expecting it to be such philosophical but I’m not mad about it. Kandasamy’s account of domestic violence is raw and unapologetic and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Domestic violence is not something to be sugar-coated. In short, this was incredible and I enjoyed it very much - even though ‘enjoy’ is maybe not the right word to be paired with this subject matter. • This is the last book I have to read for the Women’s Prize for fiction and I think it is a very worthy winner but I’ll be happy if either Sing, Unburied, Sing or Home Fire take the prize home. • • What are you currently reading? I’ve been MIA for the past week but I’m hoping to get back on reading now 🌷 • • #whenihityou #womensprize #bookreview #bookreviewers #leoyrecomiendo #booksandglasses #bookstagramespaña #librosgram #readergram #bookstagramista #bookstagramit #recentreads #bookishpost #bookishfeed #bookishphoto #readerofinstagram #booksofinsta #unitedbookstagram
