challenging
emotional
tense
medium-paced
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
4.0
Bit uncertain how I feel about the ending, it seemed to drag for a little bit + incest,,, I knew it was coming it was heavily hinted at but pls why
The writing in this book, however: immaculate, impeccable, lyrical but with just the right edge of uneasiness and without covering up the disgusting and horrible things. I loved the use of metaphors and repeated sentences and all the discussions about race and ideology and poverty- sublime and real and powerful. Really incredibly well done. I definitely recommend this novel.
