This book deals with a slew of troubling subject matters and is at times uncomfortable to read. However the writing and imagery was absolutely amazing and unlike most books written today. 
To me, this book resembled “Normal People” if it was written during the Great Depression. It follows the struggles of two people and their journey back to one another in a way that is honest and upsetting.
