A review by katiemack
The Arab of the Future 4: A Childhood in the Middle East, 1987-1992 by Riad Sattouf
4.0
I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
The anger and hostility Riad Sattouf depicts regarding his surroundings and his family is still intense. It's the fourth volume of the series, and Riad's father is still terrible and racist, and it's hard to read about Riad's identity struggles (doesn't belong in Syria, but also doesn't belong in France), especially in his adolescence.
