Dark book indeed. It's about Vanessa and her love for her teacher, starting at 15 and, well, never ending. He was almost 40, and as you read, the angst is inevitable, especially after she leaves the school - but not that point in her life. I can see why such a difficult book turned into something people love, because up to the very end I was completely involved with the horribleness of the train wreck in front of me.
