The amount of sexual assualt was honestly disturbing. Aside from that I didn't like the foreshadowing throughout the book but that's probably just my personal taste. Nevertheless an interesting read giving insight into the history of Chile through the life of an upperclass family. I especially loved Clara's character and the spiritual aspects.
