The Pervert
by Remy Boydell, Michelle Perez
This was pretty great, and really sad, but sometimes sad stories make the best kind of stories.
So what is it about? It's a about a transsexual prostitute life and trying to do her best to make it. It's very brutal and honest so a lot of sexual acts are depicted as well as how tough it is to make it through the sex life. This is a slice of life, but what makes it unique is the profession and of course the lifestyle of our main character who is a transsexual which in itself is fascinating. Now this is obviously a dark tale, and a harsh life, and so I wasn't particularity ready for it's darkness but embraced it by the end.
Good: I really liked learning about the life of a prostitute. It's dark, sad, and it's not easy. It's also extremely interesting and a glimpse into it really made me understand it more. I also loved the happiness mixed in there, even if only for a few sections, gave a sense of freedom from the otherwise moody and twisted world presented, which is very similar to ours.
Bad: Not sure why we went with animals to showcase it. It was hard to distinguished who was who at time. I also thought it could be TOO bleak at times.
Overall a very gripping story. Though dark and hard to read through at times it was still freaking amazing. I think everyone should read it. I don't know if everyone will ENJOY it as much as me but I sure as heck did. A 4 out of 5.
