Diva by Lowell Bair, Delacorta
2.0
Another pervy author using pedophilic tropes to give a mediocre story “intrigue”. Even though this was written in 1979, it’s lacking an important self awareness. Overt tones of pedophilia, manic pixie dream girl (emphasis on girl), race fetishization & a somewhat interesting if convoluted mystery/heist/caper. It reads like some dude’s fantasy world & no thanks.
