Some of the triggers are overt, others are strongly suggested, perhaps in other countries in historical periods where long ago childhoods and family histories are elaborated on, in small country towns that could be called backward, clinging to old practices such as having a proper wife but also additional wives/concubines.phantomgecko's review against another edition

It would have been easier for me to keep the characters straight if I'd been reading instead of listening, so rip to my understanding.
