Representation: N/A?
Trigger warnings: Military violence and war themes, death of a man in the ocean on-page
Score: Five points out of ten.

Very depressing, but very real. It would've been better if a refugee wrote an account of their experience rather than a white man. (

A lifeless body. One of many in the waters of the Mediterranean. Precarious boats navigate the waters of the sea, from south to north. And more often than not, it is not only hope that drowns. (amazon)
