Not a bad piece of literature. But even though it is a piece of fiction, it writes about a character who has a real condition that is approached with a lot of stigma in our world, but representing it with incredible inaccuracy, all the while the main character insists to be describing it accurately. I found this to be dangerous and harmful. I liked the end better than the rest.
