5.0

Una maestra revela en su última clase que la muerte de su hija de cuatro años no fue un accidente, sino un asesinato cometido por dos de sus alumnos adolescentes, desatando así una historia de venganza personal contada desde diferentes puntos de vista. Es sorprendente como un libro relativamente corto como Confesiones de Kanae Minato pueda abordar tantos temas sociales profundos y complejos de la sociedad japonesa como la impunidad de la delicuencia juvenil, el bullying, la presión académica y los problemas familiares y emocionales de los jóvenes.

Surprisingly digestible and although odd to say, kind of hilarious in its scheming. I think a review that compared it to The Heathers actually made it much more enjoyable than if I had taken it too seriously. Don’t love the way HIV is talked about and used as a device, especially considering it was published in the 2000s.
