This wasn't really a Persephone retelling.  It was kinda just edgy trauma porn. The bad guys in the end made no sense. The actual bad guys (the racist rapists) got no ending and no punishment. The main character didn't get any justice and never left her abusive relationship. It just kinda started sad, got sadder, ended sad. It sucked.
