I fucking hated The Wars by Timothy Findley. Horribly written, terribly boring, and in the middle there is some sick gay rape fantasy that he just inserted for no reason. I remember speaking about this book with my mom's friend, who is a high school English teacher and loves this book, and she told me some bullshit about how the rape scene was meant to symbolize how much his life perception has shattered or something like that. I told her it was 100% a gay rape fantasy, and when I looked up the author that afternoon I learned that he was, in fact, a fag.

This book was also terrible. Yams are boring, Nigeria is boring, and there are way better books about muh colonialism.
