The Speckled People: A Memoir of a Half-Irish Childhood by Hugo Hamilton
3.0
As a connoisseur of Memoirs (especially Irish and German post WWII ones) I enjoyed this book for the content. It provided a very interesting insight into a trilingual family struggling with cultural identity from the perspective of a child. However, I am giving it a lower rating because I personally had a lot of issue with the writing style. At times the content was exceptionally confusing and I had a hard time finishing the book for this reason alone.
