it was way too slow paced for my liking. if you’re not a mother and/or housewife, I don’t think you can relate much to the characters. they all seem so self absorbed.
also, I know that the plot is set in the deep south in the 80’s, but the racism? oh my god.

I appreciate the care shown to the intersections of marginalizations. It bluntly shows how white supremacy damages everyone to varying degrees, even those who uphold it, and how thoughtlessly it's upheld by those of us who benefit from it. It never punches down at the marginalized trying to survive under the bootheel of white supremacy, and it doesn't excuse or let off easily those acting within it, even the well intentioned or ignorant.
And it's a damn fine horror story, too.
