Baraka Pet Be

The backdrop of social upheaval adds so much tension; I'm curious whether the author drew from specific events or personal experiences.

The characters' struggles felt very real, but I kept wondering if their decisions made sense given the circumstances. Was I alone in feeling uneasy about some of their actions?

The commentary on society was sharp but felt woven into the story rather than overt. I'm curious about the craft behind balancing message and storytelling.
