A classic gothic novel about the dangers of over-reaching. Whilst I appreciate that this is a significant text, I don't warm to the writing style or characters.
Graphic: Child death, Death, Emotional abuse, Suicidal thoughts, Violence, Grief, Murder, and Abandonment
Moderate: Racism, Rape, Sexual assault, and Colonisation
Minor: Death of parent
