Nuanced character exploration that kept me interested despite basically everyone being unlikeable, which was skillfully done on the author's part. A generation of siblings born into an elite bubble of privilege are slowly faced with the realities of their existence, and the role they play in perpetuating cycles of inequity. Meanwhile one sister in law who has married into the family is forced to acknowledge that bias and hypocrisy aren't exclusive to the upper 1%.
