Read in one sitting. Not for the faint of heart or stomach, this books is naaaasty. The prose was excellent, it has like a tangible ick or grit or something, I can't explain it. Story was ok, got a little tired of how often Phillip's looks were regaled all the time. Like, I know exactly how he looks but I have no idea what the main character looks like.
Graphic: Gore and Murder
Moderate: Excrement and Vomit
Minor: Suicidal thoughts
