Membaca novel ini membuatkan saya terpegun dengan kekuatan bahasanya. Penggunaan bahasa daerah benar-benar mewujudkan impak real terhadap perwatakan watak-wataknya.
Walaupun banyak peristiwa dalam novel ini (cth serangan ketam, serangan tiak dsbnya) adalah gambaran kesengsaraan petani yang dihiperbolakan, namun mesej asalnya tentang kemiskinan petani dan takat kekuatan mental perempuan melayu dalam masyarakat petani itu sangat real dan mendalam.
Ssatu lagi buku Shahnon yang mempunyai kekuatan penceritaan setara dengan novel ini saya kira 'Strengenge'.
Must read!
