Lena has come back to the US after some time spent happily with her aunt, a renowned herbalist, in Italy. Like, way to reel me in, book! Not just telling me the end before I read the middle, but promising me that some fictional rich people were going to get a comeuppance.
Tripping Arcadia had my number from the beginning by telling me in the introduction that a whole bunch of amoral rich people were probably going to die. Rich people probably do poison each other at parties for shits and giggles. Now I’m like, no, actually, that sounds right. Used to be when fictional rich people were cartoonishly evil, I would think it was unrealistic. The older I get, the more cynical I become about the consciences of the very rich.
