2.0

Lightly written but strange as heck (which may be how it's most interesting for me) and I really, really wanted to have some background or psychological depth given for the teacher Miss G. in it. It feels like a children's book or fairy-tale but with homoerotic adult themes. Tries unsuccessfully to be like Golding's Lord of the Flies but is too shallow or lacks the necessary dark force and build up to pull that off.
