challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad tense slow-paced

4.0

A very slow book. I disliked the authorial voice and opinions, however it is a very important book in the space of literature. It is genre defining and also forces the reader to challenge their own beliefs and place them in an uncomfortable position. Excellent use of syntax. Makes you think.

This book was wild from start to finish. Definitely a lot slower in the beginning but once it really gets to the central issues it becomes almost impossible to put down.
