Overall: @Piotrus: The article is well written and the plot of this novel is heartbreaking. Nice balanced writing in the controversy section. I prefer ALT0 as it is the best representation of the novel's content. ALT1 is also accurate and sourced. Lightburst (talk) 15:27, 22 October 2023 (UTC) Lightburst (talk) 15:27, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
