Amazing review from Karachi, Pakistan. While Byrne has made an active effort to not write straight white characters, she has also not fallen into the trap of writing ‘safe’ or ‘good’ characters of colour, ones that can cause no offence or do no wrong. Too many white writers take that path in fear of criticism, but Byrne’s taken the risk and done what should be done — she’s written characters of colour that are human — flawed, interesting and not at all ‘safe’.
