Fear as the root of all evil, fear that the hate and abuse passed down to you will continue to manifest outside your control, in those you thought you'd be safe passing the torch to. The great flaw of capitalism as a breeding ground for entrenched racism, abuse of power, and sexism in 1974 Boston projects. Three Billboards meets Fruitvale Station, and with extra too. And yet, it's a fairly short read, it doesn't overstay or stray from its central themes. The protagonist is a sledgehammer, and the uprooting tremors she causes in her poisoned community and within her own tormented, angry soul are constantly, truly felt. Artful blend of dark and tragic drama, heroic flourishes, and a deeply flawed, unforgiving, irredeemable white perspective.
