I thought that was maybe what it was! He responds to the first child on the European tour, the girl begging, with anger and almost viciousness. Then this child, after a bit of sentimentalising, bewilderment and horror.

@wednesdayerskin.bsky.social doesn’t waste words, characters or narrative. Everything in The Benefactors has purpose. I haven’t loved a book so much in a while. You will rage, be resigned, rage some more and know why and how you got there. Go read it!
