My rating is very personal. I think if I was tougher I would’ve enjoyed it more. I felt it was a tad repetitive but to someone able to distinguish types of torture is may seem more interesting. I don’t know very much not my cup of tea. I’ve had nightmares and I think a lot of it was shock writing. However I can’t ignore the geniuses of Anthony. if nothing else the story is interesting and the writing technique thoughtful and impactful.
