Wow.. this was gross in multiple parts.  Elio compared the peach to a SA victim🧐 I’m glad the film cut out the problematic bits. This book just felt like the author writing down his weird fetishes 
The movie overall is better and this book just felt creepy and the author is a self proclaimed pedophile so take that as you will
