I don't know exactly how to review this

Just very boring, the mother is telling her son a story and it gets so so very very boring, by half way into the book I started skipping and skimming

I didn't like any of the characters at all

A story of child abuse, mental and sexual and the mother ends up in an asylum, maybe she had a reason---

It first starts out with the story of the son being gay but that doesn't add anything to the main story so why insert that into it other than it is his partner that provided the money for him

I guess you'd say it's written in chapters but they aren't numbered, they are just short pages that end the 'chapter'

I doubt I try anymore by Mr. Smith, I liked his first book Child 44 but after that---haven't liked any
