#boyswallowsuniverse — Public Fediverse posts

#Dementia
#ElderlyRelative has July #Bookclub with #BoySwallowsUniverse.

They've done hrs listening to the #Audiobook and watching/listening to reviews, interviews & discussions.

And we've made up and sung songs about the plot and relationships between characters.

But #Recall level is still pretty low.

So now they're trying watching the Netflix series based on the book.

Opening scenes were thug-life violence. Neither of us were keen to continue.
But they did.

Reading around #BoySwallowsUniverse.

Today the story seems to be about an optimist living in a #BlueBeard story variant.

Forbidden actions, curiosity, punishment, vengance, justice.

Still puzzled by the (so far) absence of corrupt #QueenslandCops in this story. How could heroin be sold without them?
EDIT 2 days later: The corrupt cops have emerged.
