Total directional whiplash for book thirty-seven of 2024. "Memory of Departure," first novel by Tanzanian Nobel Laureate Abdulrazak Gurnah. Going to Tanzania next year, so starting to dig in and learn via fiction. Young man's coming of age in poverty and abuse as the country emerges into post-colonial independence of poverty and violence. Yeah, a lot of abuse and violence. The narrator is more interesting than a typical teen protagonist. He's suffering, but also just kind of a dick. #haveread
