galoshes's review against another edition
This book depicts women as objects whose value depends on men's opinion. There is an unsettling worship of boys and boyhood. The message is heavily influenced by Christian ideas of sin and punishment. The characters' decisions make no logical sense, which I feel was covered up by the poetic prose. I don't care for stories that are written for the sake of allegory.
Moderate: Death, Ableism, Racial slurs, Sexism, and Stalking
