reflective
tense
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
4.0
Obviously, lots of details that aged poorly (it's about the south in the 1940s or 50s), plus none of the characters are really supposed to be likable. But this was a really interesting character study and look into family and really the impact of having to live within lies (and how much space lies can take up in certain dynamics)
