4.0

an excellently written story that weaves together a quite a lot of complicated subjects into what seems to be a mundanely indecent drama.
i loved the narrator’s voice and her inner monologues. i loved that all the characters are complex and three-dimensional. so much so that all of them, including the narrator, left me feeling conflicted about them, as did the whole story.
