Review from Way Too Hot Books

"My darling, all of this is my fault. I know you think your to blame for what happened. You’re wrong, my love. I’ve be
Review from Way Too Hot Books

"My darling, all of this is my fault. I know you think your to blame for what happened. You’re wrong, my love. I’ve been guilty all along..."

[image]

SHE is a 16 year old manipulative, cold, calculating and sadistic control freak and she is aggressor here. This Lolita , seed of evil, who's also the protagonist isn't even likable. She lives with her aunt and uncle who "don't understand her", and spends time drawing pornographic and sadistic sketches where she is the one in control and inflicting pain and humiliation on her female school friends.
This book is written in the form of a letter that this girl is writing to her ex-lover, teacher, to explain her side of things...

[image]

"I wasn´t born innocent.
My instincts were vicious, predatory, from the start. When I met you, I had been a voyeur as long as I´d had eyes. My very reflexes were sadistic. The ascent of my reason from the animal ways of infanthood served only to give a form to my state, as a painter gives shape to a colour. It seemed I learned to think in order to fantasise."

[image]

HE is the 34-year-old teacher and he begins by worshipping this girl from afar because he knows how morally wrong it would be for him to act upon his desire. He puts her on her a pedestal and becomes obsessed with her, but from afar. She initiates everything, she manipulates him and seduces and controls. She is really topping him from below.
But...she teased and pushed and pushed "her darling" (the teacher) until his untamed sexual beast was unleashed and he hurt her in the unforgivable way. She awakened something violent and kinky in this poor guy and she is devastated just because that one time she wasn´t in control...

WHO IS GUILTY HERE?
In this extraoridinarily dark psihosexual book they are both innocents: she´s inexperienced but manipulative aggressor, and he is naive but experienced victim.

[image]

"I understood that there is another path of innocence: that it can be attained like wisdom. I knew that I am a kind of Holy Innocent, after all. One of God´s special cases. Blundering around inside my own instincts, handicapped.
I´m like a Holy Idiot; a retarded child who is closer to Heaven because of his disability. A kind of holy pervert, who struggles every day to be good"

It´s extraoridinary that author Cathy Coote was only 19 years old when she wrote this extremely complex book. Whole the time I was wondering where were aunt and uncle all this time and why they never done anything to stop her from running away from home. I thought that this was some plot hole. But, later I found out that in Australia, where this story takes place, the age of consent is 16.

BE AWARE: This IS NOT a romatic love story!
Sexual scenes are too graphic and obscene. They were detailed, but I didn't think they were horrific. I can't recommend this as a general read, but for those interested in the subject matter of Lolita Complex or student-teacher relationship.

Windows 95 was The Best! 
We used to listen to the radio all day long just to record our favorite song of all time on a TAPE.  Boom boxes and walkmans were such a great thing.  We recorded stuff on VCRs and rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
We were getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons...

If you are too young to remember, then look at these pictures: http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/pictures-that-perfectly-capture-the-90s

Now imagine young, sweet and sensitive Forrest Gump in one american highschool and you´ll have my vision of Charlie. Lovable yet awkward character who is "growing up".

This is a quick, easy read written in letters to unknown friend. It´s perfect for teens. I saw the movie first and really enjoyed it. So I would also highly recommend that as well. ...more

review

Let´s talk about power. By the domestic polity, myth dictates that parents are endowed with disproportionate amount of it. I´m not so sure.
Children Let´s talk about power. By the domestic polity, myth dictates that parents are endowed with disproportionate amount of it. I´m not so sure.
Children? They can break our hearts, for a start. They can shame us, they can bankrupt us and I can personally attest that they can make us wish we were never born.

This book was painful, disturbing and complelling. Writing is fantastic.
I´m a mother of hyperactive toddler, and this book will haunt me for quite a while.

Lionel Shriver is now one of my favorite writers!
