I usually like PD James, but this book was disappointing.

I felt like there was a lot of subtext about how (cisgender and straight) women relate to (cisgender and straight) men and the patriarchy and how useless it is for women to try to be feminists. I know this book was written in 1982, and perhaps shouldn't be judged by the standards of 2025, but I enjoyed it less and less as it went along. By the end, I was ready to get rid of the book.
