5.0
This book is an allegory for trauma and spirituality.
Graphic: Death of parent, Animal death, Death, Cannibalism, and Grief
Moderate: Body horror, Confinement, Medical content, and Excrement
Minor: Vomit and Suicidal thoughts
This book deals with the extreme situation of being lost at sea for several months and everything that goes along with it. For the majority of the book, the main character is sevearly dehydrated. This is a book about trauma and survival and spirituality/religion.
