Educated A Memoir

This book was so captivating! Not only does it show how important education and contact with different ideologies is, it also showed me just how easy it is to be stuck in your beliefs and how dangerous it can be to just believe whatever your parents tell you. This story was so interesting, because I think everyone starts life by copying their parents mindset and this is the journey of starting to set yourself apart, but in an extreme environment, where being different is really dangerous. It's about complicated family dynamics, and the way sometimes everyone can have a different truth. If you're ever unsure about what a privilege an education is, read this book, because it will leave you with no doubts at all!

I read Educated in three days. It reads like great fiction, but it's true, which makes it also difficult to read, and it reminds us just how important and life-changing education is.

Ich habe es auf englisch gelesen, weswegen ich nicht sagen kann wie die deutsche Fassung ist. Ich fand es unglaublich gut! Es regt zum mitfühlen und nachdenken an und hat mich einiges gelehrt. Sehr empfehlenswert!

Wenn je in Frage gestellt wurde, dass Bildung der Schlüssel zu persönlichem Erfolg ist, dann ist spätestens diese über weite Strecken unfassbare Bildungsbiografie der beste Beweis.
