With stories that shriek so loudly of violence, I always wonder if there's a quieter way to make the underlying point, or if the violence is the whole point. *contempltates* Yeah, I have thought this about violent stories. Some are about depicting, reifiying the violence, while others have authors who just didn't know any other way to tell the story.
