Wow, this is a tragic story about the effects of abuse. Our main character, Suzy, is abused physically and sexually by her mother. She then turns that violence onto her mother and flees with her brother, sparking a murder spree. Suzy doesn’t really want to exist, doesn’t want her body which she never really had control over for herself, and has become emotionless in a such a devastating way. She is alone.  This is so wonderfully written; bleak and dark, exposing the trauma of violence and how the circle of violence keeps repeating itself.
