Barely Competent’s Reviews > The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny > Status Update

Having read and enjoyed The Names which too features an abusive man what is it about this depiction that makes my blood boil? I think it may be how pathetic these abusive men are, wanting pity and coddling while inflicting harm. Turing themselves into a creature so pathetic it is almost insulting that they exercise such power and abuse. Maybe it's that the abuser in The Names was more a plot device than a character.
