Not as weird as you might’ve heard, or at least if you take it as an extended metaphor on how collectivism isn’t for everyone. This book was very thoughtful in its discussion about culture and expression while still delivering a poignant tale about the pervasive nature of childhood abuse and the wider issues with conformity.
