4/5 for "Kim Ji Young, born 1982", as tough a read as I expected it would be. 4.5/5 for I Am a Girl from Africa by Elizabeth Nyamayaro, with an unexpected connection of subject matter to Kim Ji Young. 4/5 for Catfish and Mandala: A Two-Wheeled Voyage Through the Landscape and Memory of Vietnam by Andrew Pham and 4/5 for Men in the Sun and Other Palestinian Stories by Ghassan Kanafani with Hilary Kilpatrick (Translator) , another brutal read. A good start to the year with a lot of my planned "worthy" reads all done and dusted. Next up, for a complete change, The Cat Who Played Brahms and then The Cat Who Played Post Office.
