The development from the perspective of V as a girl with specks of authoritative intrusion in the form of reflection, into the opposite is seamless. Even in the form of a non-fiction memoir, I still felt a clear distinction of G as (ironically) a 'character' which comes with a new set of disgusted emotions at how emotionally connected she was to him that she could portray him in such an effective manner. I find that when she wants to, her writing can be deeply expressive and beautiful and if she ever wrote a fictitious narrative I would read it at the first available opportunity.

Beautiful and inspiring, springora has an incredible grasp on language and tells her story incredibly. Her words not only survive but thrive with the translation that so often renders books unreadable.
