[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s a very thoughtful response. It discusses tkam like it would hopefully be taught by a good teacher. It also shows the layers and nuance in tkam that have made it a classic. It’s not a book that can or should be reduced to a one sentence description, and the characters in the book are the same way. I think some people here and I assume the admin at SR don’t like tkam because they only want books that relentlessly push a specific racial narrative and include shallow and unrealistic characters that are all good or all bad. [/quote] That sounds right to me. We desperately need more books and discussions about ambiguity, imperfection, shades of gray, and differing perspectives, not fewer—and yet we are headed in the opposite direction. What a mess.[/quote]
