Penny asked this question about Three Women:
Was the relationship between the high school student and her teacher romanticized? Was the girl portrayed as "asking for it"? Is female masochism normalized in this book? It sounds a little creepy, and extremely misogynistic. Not all women "desire" suffering & exploitation.
Caroline Yes to everything you asked. Taddeo's portrayal of Maggie is concerning, and I felt compelled to address that in my review. …moreYes to everything you asked. Taddeo's portrayal of Maggie is concerning, and I felt compelled to address that in my review. (less)
