Not only this, but the Furies was essentially just trauma porn. It was riddled with gratuitous violence against women, to the point where it seemingly served no purpose but to disturb. Massive trigger warning for rape and assault - there is almost no reprieve the entire length of the novel.
The section from Cynthia’s mother’s point of view was the best part of the book, and was genuinely really well-written. However, the rest was trying to do much and I just wanted to get it over with.
