I haven't read this yet, but was too curious to skip the spoilers :) I agree that there's nothing wrong with a book being optimistic about human nature. If we can imagine crazy fantasy worlds, I see no problem with imagining a more ideal version of the real one. I also think it's valuable for books to exist that help us imagine a future we want to live in and I like to think it's not impossible that a rape victim would receive this sort of support today.DoingDeweyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09902496432225294188noreply@blogger.com
