[baroque]

I read some amazing books for the past week.

The sound of Language by AMULYA MALLADI is a sweet, simple, emotional, hopeful and positive novel.

It's about an Afghan woman's horrible experiences (the author will not make you cry... don't worry), her new life and experiences in Denmark where she immigrates.

She learns to speak Danish, started to work with a Danish man who is a bee keeper.

Experiences of language barriers, prejudices, marvelous friendship between Gunnar and Raihana, detailed and fascinating honey making job routines, Afghan people's culture and their life as refugees in a European nation is wonderful to read.

Sweet novel from AMULYA MALLADI.

You fall in love with Raihana and Gunnar, their friendship.

Peter Geye steals my heart with his evocative writing.
