Reflection
Reading the quiet violence of dreams was very enlightening. However, I found reading the novel fluently a challenge since it was composed of several changes in the flow. In the story, the author employs the use of different points of view of different characters, and this makes it difficult to follow. I had to read back and forth for me to understand the concepts that the author was discussing. I, however, managed to work through the challenges through writing down every character in the book, and I would take notes on when the voice of a particular person is reflecting or speaking. Through this, I was able to read the book and understand it. Some of the essential parts that I came across include the concept of hypocrisy that is depicted by the African society. Ideally, the community of Africa is willing to accept and accommodate immigrant gays but not those who are from their continent. I feel that this is a common thing, and raising it in the book is a reflection of the nature of African society.
