This is a story about a very unwell woman. Who does outrageously inappropriate things because she is unwell.
My greatest quibble is Eleanor purports to be very good at crosswords, particularly cryptic (the best kind) and yet she is lacking in so much pop culture knowledge that this cannot possibly be true. Even cryptics, which rely heavily on wordplay, necessitate a basic foundation of cultural knowledge. Like, girlie doesn't know who the Grinch is. She is not completing crosswords.
Otherwise, it is an interesting if uncomfortable novel.
Moderate: Fire/Fire injury, Mental illness, Child abuse, Child death, Death, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , Death of parent, Alcoholism, and Alcohol
