A review by erosmus
Lapvona by Ottessa Moshfegh
Did not finish book. Stopped at 39%.
I can get down with some weird stuff, but this ain't it. As much as I did enjoy Moshfegh's writing style, the graphic sexual descriptions and use of child abuse/pedophilia seemed added only for shock value rather than plot enhancement (also, there is no plot) and I'm not willing to invest time in that.
Graphic: Adult/minor relationship, Child abuse, Child death, Death, Pedophilia, Physical abuse, Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual content, Sexual violence, Grief, Murder, Pregnancy, Injury/Injury detail, and Classism
