This book... is going to haunt me. And here's the thing, this book isn't a suspence, thriller or horror. But the notions and plot that runs throughout it makes you question everything you know it to be. In a way, the children are like feral children. Difference is that they were treated right for the first years of their life before they are abandoned and left to survive on their own. I think some may say that "It is better to have loved and lost, than never loved at all." But in this case, the love they felt and received as children only showed that their circumstances are that far away from it. It is simply said, a haunting novel that you should read for yourself and make judgements of your own. The reason I say this is because right off the bat, we can say that incest is wrong... but in this story... you question what happens to rationality when we're isolated from humanity.
