dark sad tense slow-paced

Ich fand die Geschichte einfach nur obszön und hatte zu viele beschriebene Sexszene. 
Die Beschreibungen hinterlassen einen faden Nachgeschmack und ein sehr schlechtes Gefühl.

Good book, but not about desire as is claimed. How could it be, if a third of it is about literal child abuse? Ro call it that is disgusting and pretty hypocritical. Also didn't enjoy the prologue's notion that men can't control themselves sexually and have to give in to desire no matter what.

This was not an easy read. I would not go as far as to say that this book triggered me but it was difficult to get through and yet I could not put it down. This is a book that made me think about womanhood as not a prison but as a liminal space. “Three Women” has a limited scope - it primarily focuses on white women and their relationships with men. There are fragments about their relationships (or lack thereof) with other women woven into the narratives of the book, but as a reader I wanted so much more of that. I found myself wanting to know less about the men that they loved and more about the women that the titular three women had been betrayed by. I think that could have spoken volumes about female desires.

Overall - I enjoyed the book. It made me think. It made me want to ask questions.
