Re: Shivers
Ultimately it boils down to this: I didn't find the scene glamorized in any way. When I read this for the first time, I wanted to throw up because I read it as horrific. I still do. To me, it's one of the starkest -- yeah, horrifying -- scenes I've ever read. So yeah, I don't see the apology for Tarantula here.
Maybe we're going to have stop debating, since I don't think we're even starting from the same point or perspective on the story.
