Review: The Tusk That Did the Damage

The Tusk That Did the Damage The Tusk That Did the Damage by Tania James
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a really unusual book, and one that sat on my "to read" list for a long time. It's about an elephant - called the Gravedigger - and all the people around him whose lives he impacts: documentary filmmakers, poachers, and parks employees to name a few. The narrative switches across characters sometimes abruptly, but overall it pulls together to a cohesive story. The chapters with the Gravedigger's point of view are the most unique, but several of the characters are well-developed and the story moves along.
