Moderate: Colonisation, Incest, Death, Racism, and Sexual assault
Minor: Suicide and Suicide attempt
Colonization is the big back drop of this whole story. With colonization comes racism, classism, etc. The other big horror looming over the story is eugenics. If the discussions/mention/themes of eugenics are a big problem for you, back out now.katemarie99's review against another edition
