Don't Stop The Carnival by Herman Wouk

Did not finish book.

1.0

To be fair, I know that this book is a product of its time. But the overwhelming racism, misogyny, and homophobia is still revolting - I'm amazed that modern readers continue to rate this book so highly. I was so excited to read this because of my personal history with St. Croix, but I wound up abandoning the book halfway through in disgust after Wouk tried to portray an attempted sexual assault through a humorous lens. I'd give this negative stars if I could.
