I’m not even finished yet but holy shit Lionel shriver is so damn good. What made Kevin do what he did? Who is at fault? Was Kevin just like this when he was born or did something happen? Was it because of the father enabling his behavior? Was Kevin brought up to be like this or was it an outside influence or maybe he was like that from the start. It’s such a complex book that’s told from the perspective we never see; the mother of the shooter. It’s hard watching Eva try to grapple with her emotions and come to terms with what her son has done. From her eyes, Kevin was like this from the start. But these letters are from her perspective, is there something she’s leaving out? Is there something she doesn’t know about? I’d love to discuss this, and please mark spoilers cause I’m not finished yet but I just really wanted to share my thoughts
