I understand the literary value of this book
And I’m glad I listened to the edition with the final chapter. I did really like that ending.
However - the language killed me. I was almost a third of the way through the book before I had any idea what was going on. Thank goodness for the Sparknotes dictionary.
This was very dystopian and almost a sociological/psychological kind of book, but it was just too violent for me personally.
