someone replied to my review of your book with this:

And just who are these women who you claim to know, who don't believe that the author is a man because of the way he writes about sexual assault? Why haven't they left reviews? I'm a woman and a rape survivor, and I found his depiction of sexual assault misogynistic and disturbingly unrealistic. It doesn't sound like a woman's description of sexual assault; it sounds like a rapist's assumptions about the way he hopes and expects a woman feels about sexual assault. Just to see if I was the only one who had that reaction, I read the scene to several women I know who have survived sexual assault, and they felt the same way about it.

Orgasms during rape aren't unheard of, and feelings of guilt (and questioning whether it was "really" rape) are common among women who have survived sexual assault, but Christy writes about it in such a way that it comes across as a sadistic parody of the experience of being raped. I think the author is an extremely sick man and I'm disturbed by the fact that you think his portrayal of sexual assault is remotely realistic.

He had removed his glasses and let them rest on his forehead, propped - w4m - 24 (Logan Square)

His shirts were flannel and fitted and his shoes were meant for shredding. Midwestern fit him like a glove, and for this she was repelled and intrigued. He used title case with elusive discretion in all his correspondence, and held animosity towards those who could grow beards.

He exuded great confidence; he wielded condescension with skill, but it would always be an act.

Avril reclined on the settee, closely watching the smoke from her cigarette twirl listlessly upwards in a spiral, touch the ceiling, then disappear into nonexistence. She blew a bit of air through her lips, and the smoke went into a chaotic frenzy, twisting and writhing through the air, then stopping, and resuming its former pattern. Avril watched it for a while, all the time never taking a breath of the smoke, simply resigned to observing its ways.

The ancient clock on the mantle struck two. Avril little heeded it, although it was two o'clock at night. She waited a few more minutes, and then, tearing her eyes from the cigarette, she smashed it into a nearby ashtray and got up from her position. Walking over to the window, she looked out into the moonlit night.
The moon was a bright white, full and radiant, and the sky was an unbroken stretch of black, scattered here and there with stars. Fog clung close to the sides of buildings and streets, so that one could barely see in front of oneself. The wind was almost completely quiet, except for tickling a couple of wind chimes lightly, just to break the all-encompassing silence that hung about the night, giving it a restless, eerie mood.
