This is a powerful book that is begging to be discussed and argued over. We get a series of traumatic events without the feelings and interior changes that happen when humans are dealing with trauma. So there is a lot of assumptions that we can fill in about it. And I think that says as much about the reader as it says about the author or the characters.
This is a horrific story and there is a lot of trauma, so reading this may not be for everyone at just anytime. But it is important.
