Woman at 1,000 Degrees by HallgrÃmur Helgason
1.75
When you describe a 14 year old rape victims breasts as "her almost virginal breasts had risen like yeast," I have to hate
The beginning of this book was so promising, a bed bound, grumpy old lady remembering her past.
I love grumpy characters, I'm curious about Iceland, and at the beginning it was such an adventurous past....
And then shit goes downhill.
The male author describes disgustingly a minor girl's body.
And it only gets worse.
And Worse.
And you think you've hit the bottom of the shit
And then she goes to Argentina, and you realise you were so hopeful and naive because it's horrible.
Honestly I'm so sick of male authors being fucking disgusting towards their female characters. Cut. It. Out.
