Falko reviewed Drystone by Kristie De Garis
disturbing, powerful, encouraging
5 stars
It's painful and disturbing at times. But also beautiful and enticing. Kristie De Garis has a very unique and refreshing style of writing. Her honesty is brutal and she does not spare anyone when she writes about racism, sexism, rape and addiction. Not even herself. It's embarrassing to read as a man what she had to experience and how she was treated. Likely still is treated today. But she found her way to deal with it and not collapse. Instead she puts her experiences into beautiful and powerful sentences, paragraphs, essays and a book eventually.
