Faye doesn’t shy away from making the reader feel uncomfortable. But that’s the point. She explores racism, sexism, homophobia in a way that feel personal and real. Gripping story following 2 timelines that meet up. Docked her a few points because the writing style with constant “rat-a-tat” etc. feels slightly juvenile and sometimes it’s a bit difficult to follow since Alice is more often than not called Nobody throughout. Overall would recommend this book as a thought provoking read.
