The relationship between the protagonist and the title character, which can be read as romantic, has an age gap of several years, which in the case of this interpretation is questionable given that they first met as children. There are also some uncomfortably romantic interactions between the protagonist and the title character's mother.honeyvoiced's review

sinclair's struggles resonated immensely w/ me. though i did fail to grasp some of the metaphorical aspects and didnt fully agree w/ some things, but the book's themes are timeless and even life-saving.
