It is the best book I have ever read, written by a male from a female perspective.

Any thoughts?
I read the book over twenty years ago, and it still haunts me. The last scenes are terrifying and beautiful. I have it, put aside, for when my children are old enough. Have you read The Painted Bird, by Jerzy Kosinski? Not as lyrical, but mines some of the same territory
