it was amazing

A heartbreaking follow up to Parable of the Sower. A tale of a mother and daughter ripped from each other and never truly able to find their way back. This book shows the ease at which rhetoric can become a tool to enslavement and hatred. The story goes back and forth between the mother and daughter and how their lives are impacted by the result of such rhetoric, drawing similarities to modern day society. Highly recommended.
