vivelarevolution's review against another edition
I don't feel comfortable continuing to read the book with this information in mind as I feel the author presented both relationships as consensual and between peers. That cannot possibly be the case. I don't understand the widespread inclination in historical fiction to portray pedophilic relationships as acceptable and understandable just because of the time period, and I don't condone it.

The rape is depicted graphically on pages 184-185.rspades's review
