pickAlternating POV between four young teenagers who are so real my heart breaks. The poverty and violence of their home, the slums of Mauritius, brands them all, but in unique ways: these are individuals. Knowing them has enlarged me. Gorgeous prose, translated from French by Jeffrey Zuckerman, lightens this fierce, short novel. #queerbooks #translation #SouthAsianDiaspora #lgbtq
