laura_may's review against another edition
The way the MC justified being a pedophile after the child rape scene, and the amount of time the author spent trying to make it seem okay because it was a cultural difference was horrific, I couldn’t continue

This is such a sad, strange, and deeply unsettling novel. The writing is often masterful, but I don’t quite know how to feel about it. I agree with reviewers that while it might be difficult to actually *like* this book, you can certainly admire its ambition and execution.

I read this book a long while ago. But I still think about it often and I feel like that is a good sign for a book well written.

HARD PASS and super mad at myself for not considering that there may be graphic child rape scenes from this author. Will not be seeking more from her period.
