5.0
Historical fiction with a truly epic sapphic love story that spans this world, and the next. Tender, sensuous and evocative. Religious freedom is a prominent plot point so there is an interesting juxtaposition between religious freedom and individual freedom. Hannah Kent really knows how to write.
Graphic: Death
Moderate: Homophobia, Racism, Lesbophobia, and Colonisation
Minor: Miscarriage
