The translation is excellent and lucid. The story itself seemed very authentic, especially Nefer's character and her inner turmoil but the plot missed quite a few points especially the disgusting incident which shaped our protagonist's life. The ending was heartbreaking but realistic.
I would rate it 3.5/5
Thanks to Archipelago and NetGalley for this ARC.
