I bought this randomly at a Goodwill and am so glad I did. This is such a fascinating and unique exploration of aging and womanhood and power and sexuality and love. A book with an unlikable and downright evil middle-aged female protagonist is so rare, and it's done so well here.
Graphic: Kidnapping
Moderate: Sexual assault
