Review of 'Teaching My Mother How To Give Birth' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
"I want to make love, but my hair smells of war and running and running. I want to lay down, but these countries are like uncles who touch you when you're young and asleep."
Intense erotic imagery transitions into the intense loss she has for her old life, old country, and family. She makes you feel her trauma like it's fresh, and how it ages with her.
