So basically, it's one of the choices on our curriculum for our English class. Yes. It's one of the options that we can pick. So I had read it already and had gone to my teacher and said, I really, really love this book. And would it be possible? And then she went to the board and they spoke and they decided to do the book. So we're learning it as part of our final assessment.
One of my favorite things about the book, the reason I love it so much, is that it is so unapologetically and unavoidably Ireland in the 80s. There's not a second when you're reading the book that you can genuinely believe that this is in a different place or this is in a different time. You can't take yourself out of the story. This is your village, your people, your town, your community.
And that's so powerful that you are forced to acknowledge this is a part of your very recent history. Wow.
