5.0

It’s impossible to articulate the feeling of having read this book. It feels like Lolita, without the beautiful prose, stripped down to a stalker and sexuality and the making the choice to pass - with the resources of your uncle, a Rockerfeller. Instead of being liberal commie anarchists, they were trust fund babies playing at liberalism before settling down to run for congress. They never made it past the irony stage.

What fucking posers.
