A low pick for me. Loved the sense of place especially the power of the river and the insight into history that I just don‘t know anything about -
Sudan in the mid 1800s (yes I am still making my way through #readingafrica2022 😆) but overall I found the story from multiple perspectives hard to keep up with and there was a really sad futility in much of the war and loss of identify. The main love story also confused me!
