Hurricane Helene constantly in the news now, with a steadily growing death toll, but even if a book is written, it won’t be as deeply researched as this.

And of course, this is a deeply personal story, about Moses. A hurricane isn’t responsible in any sense at all, but I hope there is a hell for Moses to suffer in for his sins.

OMG. This is depressing on an epic scale.

I can’t think of another book that catalogs so much injustice at such an intimate level.

Wars, famines, natural disasters � they might harm more people than Moses did, but we don’t have a Caro to write about them.

❝Those streets had seen despair.…❞
What an awesome tear-jerker of a paragraph.

Whipsawed between admiration and horror at our subject. Like Julius Caesar or something. Riveting. Disturbing. Fascinating.
