QUIARA ALEGRÍA HUDES, THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

"Breathless, scorching ... A gripping tale of fundamentalism and the light of rebellion piercing through its cracks. Critiques of colonial and patriarchal violence weave throughout, made all the more scathing by Sinclair's patient understatement ... While the memoir's conclusion explodes with urgency, it lacks Sinclair's slow-brewed sagacity. History catches up with her, and not enough years have passed for wisdom to surface. I was startled by the finale — was all her searing testimony in service of Djani's redemption? I had to put the book down, walk away. With a bit of distance, I came to feel that the center of this book was its matriarch ... Sinclair can craft a luscious sentence."
