finished this one on the plane and safe to say, i was impressed by it. such self-destructive characters, all of who are flung into even worse circumstances because of what their queerness entails in a deeply unaccepting society. chiefly constructed with monologues and storytelling rather than any actual plot that unravels in front of us as the reader, it still managed to hold me in till the end.
