Content Warnings

Graphic: Fatphobia, Racism, Sexual violence, Colonisation, Animal cruelty, Sexual assault, Infidelity, Violence, Sexism, Animal death, Rape, Sexual content, Grief, and Emotional abuse

Sexual violence is at the forefront of this book. It may not be gratuitous (depending on opinion) but it is a major theme throughout.
