so I'm going to linger on this lengthy, sensuous description of four-year-old Alexander cuddling naked with his mother in bed
OMG. *boggles* Uh, is the sensuousness from Alexander's perspective, or from his mother's, or from the narrator's? If those can be separated...
Also, I was thinking that not-brutal, not-glorious might be like one of those WWII homefront diaries, but OTOH they're kind of at a distance from the war.
