Brimming with ideas, characters, temporal shifts, other transitions, provocations, musical and artistic allusions, and imagery. Disappointingly little content about the ocean or Santería though, and I found the racism, homophobia, rape fantasies, and graphic violence gratuitous, while the extensive cast was difficult to follow.
Graphic: Homophobia, Racial slurs, and Violence
Moderate: Sexism
Minor: Rape
