Ru Freeman captures the moment when the thorn enters the skin, and then she leads us forward towards healing. A great collection from one of the best and most necessary voices of our times. --Colum McCann, Let the Great World SpinRu Freeman never hesitates to tackle big political issues, but she does so with the most human and heartfelt touch. I've been a fan of her work for a long time and always look forward to what she'll write next. --Celeste Ng, New York Times bestselling author of Little Fires EverywhereI have known and watched Ru for many years with awe--we have few of her kind in the literary world. A truth-teller, a true fighter, a loving creator, we only have a few that stand for something and not sit for everything. --Porochista Khakpour, Brown Album: Essays on Exile & Identity
