This was as good as it could have been I think, given the subject matter. I think explorations of masculinity are important and relevant and necessary. I also think I read this while in a mood that perhaps did not entirely appreciate that. There is something just boring in the idea that one of the most honest and raw portrayals of boys coming-of-age is grubbiness and violence. Perhaps this deserves a reread when I’m not actively bleeding.
