 this is a challenging read, as the pacing of the book switches from arduous torture to breakneck speed in the span of one chapter, and there is no central plot to anchor you down. if you want to analyze the text, what works for me is summarizing the key events of the chapter so i don't get mixed up because one chapter can cover 2 - 3 plot points or character arcs.

I had to read this for a class and I just hated it. The way he describes women is disgusting. The amount of incest and pedophilia made me want to throw up. it’s awful.

Beautiful writing and story telling. So much incest and pedophilia with a splash of sexual assault and the occasional bestiality.
