The End of Eddy by Édouard Louis

challenging dark reflective tense fast-paced

Although she is an angry woman, she is not one who knows what to do with the hatred that never leaves her. She rails when alone in front of the TV or with other mothers outside the school.

oh, this takes forever to finish. violence pervades every inch of it and indeed, this is a literature of violence. barely it offers any salve to every punch it pulls. the portrayal of how all-encompassing violence is in lower-class life is something i find true to life and relatable even in indonesia.

i can see the merit of it, but i don't think this is something i would do usually.
