Moments? Vulgarity? This is the book that coined the term "ultraviolence." It consists of episode after episode of gruesome brutality.

The whole point of the violence though is to shine a light on choice/free will. In RPO those same dilemmas are not played with.

I wholly agree that the gruesome brutalities in a story may be essential to its successful articulation of some deep and crucial truth.

Gruesome brutality doesn't make a bad book. Censorship is silly. At least make the violence mean something. RPO does not. Clockwork does.
