Struggled a bit to get through this book.
The many points of view were sometimes confusing for me. I don’t know if this was the translation but I got a bit confused sometimes.
Overall, I’m glad I read it. I honestly didn’t know much about Oman - especially the history of slavery amongst other things. It was a very interesting view into the lives of these women and the struggles in this world they lived in as it changed over time.
