Review of 'Inseparables' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

The books tells the story of a deep friendship between two young women, both smart and capable but also constrained by the expectations of their family and society at the time. The writing is excellent, a pleasure to read. Considering that it is a story based on the Author's life and her friend Zaza, it's amazing how modern their ideas were and appalling how those young women were oppressed by their role. Overall an excellent read.
