Unabridged Audiobook
I was very much drawn to this book based on having heard the author in a podcast talking about scent and memory and place an origin. and I have to say that this book was that but very difficult for me to finish. I did enjoy the structure of each section being led by a perfume with its notes being described and somehow relating to the text, that was cool. the author has a very poetic understanding of sent. I found the last bit of the book a little bit too much of the same, it's very much a story of the struggle of being in diaspora and about saying the word f*** a lot I think and I think it needed a better editor perhaps at the end. that said I would read another book of theirs when when she writes another. all
