It is also necessary.
It's difficult to call it beautiful when it took so long to get through given the dmany breaks needed scattered throughout in order to... You know, still feel ok.
The narration is from the girl's perspective, some kind of "stream of thought", except it is full of breaking points, repetitions and quite nonsensical, so the girl's stream of thought is something else entirely, and it reflects, I believe, how broken she feels.
It is a trigger warning in itself, so be mindful of that. Very graphic many times.
