extremely dense, very interesting and well read, found it a little difficult to get into. didn't feel as groundbreaking to me as i thought it would going into it, but that very may be because i read it 54 years after its publication. still, what a galaxy brain and very well explored premise.
Moderate: Kidnapping and Police brutality
Minor: War, Deportation, Miscarriage, Suicide, Death, and Incest
