ALSO the implication that the second wife was a child when her sister got married??#like that aspect of it like the incest is also so depressing and insular and like. she was trapped right she never had a choice#when gothic horror examines the patriarchy and white supremacy >>>>>>#bc a huge part od the story is the race science/eugenics the head ofnthe family#is obsessed with and how that is potentially hurting catalina and will threaten noemi#cor reads
