sheeesh this was full of some disturbing imagery and stories. it was kind of a complicated read for some of them, i feel like maybe the points were too over my head for a few but all of it was very well written. i think it’s mostly cut and clear what the author was getting across when it comes to violence, racism, the self, and consumerism. each voice of the character within a story was unique, it never felt repetitive or anything. i appreciate this a lot, i think the author has an amazing view and creativity. not sure i’d ever read it again though :P
