Striking book that examines the way we discuss and think f the dynamics between power and gender. Thoughtful and well written, this book reads much easier than the subject matter would lead you to believe. CW there is some pretty graphic assault and r scene I found challenging to get through.
Graphic: Body horror, Hate crime, Physical abuse, Rape, Sexual violence, and Violence
Minor: Genocide
